HONORING CAPTAIN WILLIAM HENRY MULLIGAN
______
HON. TIMOTHY H. BISHOP
of new york
in the house of representatives
Wednesday, January 23, 2008
Mr. BISHOP of New York. Madam Speaker, I rise to honor and recognize
Captain William Henry Mulligan for his extraordinary career and
accomplishments as he plans to step down as president of the Suffolk
County Police Superior Officers Association (SOA).
Bill Mulligan was raised in the great town of Hempstead, NY. He
proudly served our country in the United States Navy, from 1961 to his
honorable discharge in 1964.
Bill joined the Suffolk County Police Department (SCPD) in August of
1967 as a patrolman, and his commitment to law enforcement led to
numerous promotions within the department and the Suffolk County
Superior Officers Association (SOA). Among the police department, Bill
was known for his dedicated work as an officer and as a lover of
sports. Bill managed and played for the SCPD softball team which won
medals in the New York State Police Olympics and gained national
notoriety for its outstanding play.
In 2005, Captain Mulligan was named president of the Suffolk County
SOA. The SOA is responsible for representing the labor interests of its
members in the Suffolk County Police Department. The organization acts
as the exclusive majority representative in negotiating for improved
wages, hours, working conditions, welfare and job security, as well as
for all other aspects of collective bargaining. As president, Captain
Mulligan represented over 500 supervisors and administrators in the
Suffolk County Police Department and he has held the position with
distinction for the last 3 years.
Today Bill lives in the town of Riverhead, NY with his wife of 42
years, Janet, and their three beautiful daughters, Janine, Elizabeth
and Michele.
I am proud to honor Captain William Henry Mulligan for his service to
our country and our community. Madam Speaker, on behalf of all New
Yorkers, it is with great pride that I recognize and thank Captain
Mulligan for a truly distinguished career. We wish him and his family
the best in the future.
