“Sheriff Marian Brown’s tenure has been marked by her unwavering dedication to justice and her commitment to the welfare of all Dallas County residents. Her leadership is essential for the continued progress and innovation within the Sheriff’s Office. We stand with her in her re-election bid, confident in her ability to foster a safe and thriving Dallas County,” said Reverend Haynes.

Sheriff Brown is the first African American sheriff in Dallas County history. First appointed by Dallas County Commissioners, Sheriff Brown went on to be elected by voters in 2018 and re-elected in 2020. She is seeking her second full term in the 2024 election cycle. During Sheriff Brown’s tenure, the county jail system has successfully passed inspection. Brown also secured Certified by the National Commission on Correctional Health Care. She began a series of gun buybacks in 2023 that will continue. The Dallas Morning News recommends Sheriff Brown in the Democratic Primary, noting her able management of the department, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.
