DORAL, Fla. —
Rep. Mario Diaz Balart celebrated receiving more than $5.2 million in federal funding for law enforcement in Miami-Dade County.
During a ceremony, Diaz Balart handed two big U.S. Treasury checks at the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office headquarters on Monday in Doral.
“This department is always at the forefront of technology,” Diaz-Balart said.
One check was for $4.2 million in equipment, and the other was for $1.05 million for a mobile command center.
“We have some really big things coming to Miami-Dade,” Sheriff Rosie Cordero-Stutz said.
The FIFA World Cup will have five matches in June and four in July in Miami-Dade County.
