Firefighters and EMS Fund is proud to begin 2019 by renewing our fight to support legislative initiatives that will benefit firefighters both on and off duty. It is paramount that the resources they need to carry out their jobs be made readily available for use.
As 2019 has few political events to focus on, Firefighters and EMS Fund is hitting the ground in search of problems that need fixed. We’ve been keeping our eyes and ears open to ensure no call goes unheard. By monitoring referenda and reporting on recent trends, attending conferences to forge new partnerships, joining associations to understand the issues in all aspects of the industry, and adding knowledgeable individuals to our team, we expect to be able to continue making a positive difference. Read on to see how we’re doing just that:
