It was a productive visit to Washington DC to visit with our Congressional delegation and discuss the challenges facing firefighters across the US

🔥🏛️ When #firefighters make their voices heard, change happens.

The Honor Act, repeal of WEP and GPO, and permanent funding for the 9/11 WTCHP are proof of what we can achieve together.

Thank you to everyone who came to #LegCon26!

#UnionStrong 💪

If @Boeing was serious about #safety, it would pay its fire fighters a fair, living wage. Those in nearby cities make up to 30% more than those protecting Boeing's factories, planes, and people.
