From its humble beginnings nearly 50 years ago, the Michigan State Police Troopers Association has evolved to become a leader in the arena of police labor. Prior to the advent of collective bargaining, state police troopers and sergeants were subject to the draconian policies and practices of both the Department of State Police and the state Civil Service Commission. Some of these policies and practices when viewed in the 21st century would seem foreign to many. It was because of these often-subtle oppressions that this proud organization was formed.
The Michigan State Troopers Assistance Fund, (“M”-“Staf”) was formed by the Michigan State Police Troopers Association in 1993 as a nonprofit charitable organization under 501(c)(3) guidelines of the Internal Revenue Code.

On Tuesday, January 8th, 2025, the combined leadership of the Michigan State Police Troopers Association and the Michigan State Police Command Officers Association made the difficult decision to file a formal complaint with the State of Michigan Board of Ethics and the Michigan Office of the Attorney General regarding actions taken by two senior members of the Michigan State Police.
This action was taken with the belief that the standards of accountability apply to all enlisted members of the Michigan State Police regardless of rank. To preserve the integrity of the process, we will have no further comment. Our members will continue to perform our duties to the citizens of Michigan with a high degree of professionalism and integrity.
