Meet Chris Anderson

Chris Anderson has spent his career serving our community — protecting families, building trust, and standing up for what’s right.

Now he’s running for Jefferson County Sheriff to bring accountability, transparency, and compassion back to law enforcement.

Chris believes public safety means more than arrests and headlines — it means prevention, partnership, and fairness. As Sheriff, he’ll modernize the department, strengthen community policing, and make sure every neighborhood — from Bessemer to Birmingham to Center Point — gets equal protection under the law.
