Our hearts go out to everyone affected by this terrible tragedy on 15th Street NW. DC Firefighters responded immediately and provided critical life saving care to those who were injured. Our members adapted in real time to a complex response.

[Councilmember Brooke Pinto @CMBrookePinto]

🚓 🚒 The District must be a place where first responders want to work and stay.

To continue to keep DC safe, we must do more to address our recruitment and retention barriers at Fire & EMS and MPD. That’s why I am so thrilled that the DC Council advanced my bill called the “Deferred Retirement Option Program Amendment Act,” or DROP Act, to retain top talent at our public safety agencies.

DROP will allow retirement-eligible MPD or Fire & EMS members to continue working an additional three years in DC and continue to collect their retirement benefits in a separate account. The Council will take a final vote on my DROP Act next month.

Thank you to Councilmembers @chenderson, @CMZParker5, @CMFrumin, @AnitaBondsDC, McDuffie, @CMLewisGeorgeW4, @CMCharlesAllen, @CMRobertWhiteDC, and @CMNadeauOffice, and @ChmnMendelson for co-introducing this important bill.

Half of fatal fires occur over night. Right now Shaw and Tenleytown are without ladder trucks serving their communities. DC operates 16 ladder trucks and owns 33 ladder trucks . That leaves 17 extra for nights like this…Why are none available? DC deserves better.

The DC Council should take a real look at SFO. For the safety of DC Residents, let’s hit the brakes. We already face obstacles navigating city streets and an over-burdened 911 system. DC Firefighters have no training on how to handle Waymos.
