IAFF L858 Sec/Treas, 38-year Firefighter & DFD Peer Support Team Director. Committed to my Sister & Brother Firefighters & their families in their time of need.
Landon & I visited a 9-11 memorial in St Pete FL yesterday. We know 3,000 people died, 343 firefighters from @FDNY, but 23 years since, 360 more died & an estimated 11,000 suffer from 9-11 related diseases. Please remember those affected by those terrible events & God bless all!
We remember and honor the following firefighters who lost their lives in the line of duty on July 18. We also recognize their sacrifice and that of their families. Search for the Roll of Honor profiles of these firefighters on our website. #FireHero
The @iaffofficial was proud to back @AFA975 in its fight to protect union rights. The win doesn't only benefit Local 975; it sets a precedent for Labor across Texas. https://t.co/Y4nxL0l1LI
Please remember our Sisters and Brothers who made the Ultimate Sacrifice in the service of our great country. God bless you all, and may you never be forgotten! 🇺🇸 🪖
The NIST study confirms what we know to be true: #firefighter bunker gear is manufactured with toxic #PFAS chemicals, and it's time for those carcinogens to go.
