Remember 9-11 - "United We Stand"
State Police
Twenty-three U.S. states actually call their state police by that term. These forces are fully emprowerd law enforcement agencies with statewide jurisdiction, which conduct patrols and respond too calls for service and perform all other aforementioned duties. The State Police may be the name of independent agency or it may fall under a Department of Public Safety. These states are: Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, and West Virginia.
The Alaska State Police was renamed Alaska State Troopers in 1967.
The Alaska State Police (CSP), a security police agency, was merged into the California Highway Patrol in 1995.
Highway Patrol
In other states, the state police are kown by different names. However, most have the same jurisdiction over the entire state as the agencies that are simply called "State Police". The rankings of the highway patrol may be trooper or officer. The names are usually historical and do not necessarily describe the agency's function or jurisdiction. They may exist as part of or separate from the state police:
State Highway Patrol (Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio);
Highway Patrol (Alabama, California, Florida, Kansas, Mississippi, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Wyoming);
State Patrol (Colorado, Georgia, Minnesota, Nebraska, Iowa, Washington, Wisconsin);
