The #IAFF is dismayed by the NFPA Standards Council decision to deny implementation of TIA 1594 to NFPA 1971, but we will not be swayed by those who want to minimize the health hazards and will not relent in our efforts to develop effective and safe PFAS-free PPE. @IAFFNewsDesk
@KenPaxtonTX Mr Attorney General that image you use to reflect on this day is disgusting. Please remove it and have some respect. Be better than that This day doesn’t need shock art to get a point across. You should be ashamed of yourself.
A full image gallery is now up on my website from the 3rd alarm in Lawrence on Shawsheen Ct Thursday night. Thank you @Bfmorty for the access you always afford me @LawrenceFire146@ctfirephoto@essexcty_alerts#1DC https://t.co/vae1a0R8dh
“We shouldn’t wear clothes that are going to hurt us, but until something is in place, we have no choice. We have to wear the gear. We’re not going to stop responding to fires,” Rich MacKinnon Jr., president of the Professional Fire Fighters of Massachusetts said.
Local 146 thoughts and prayers are with our brothers and sister in New Haven CT as they lost one of their own in a structure fire last night. Three other members were also injured while fighting the fire and rescuing trapped civilians. Speedy recovery to all those injured#LODD
“Many firefighters and EMTs have children and know firsthand how important it is for them to be safer when they are back in school,” said MacKinnon, President of the PFFM.

Councilor Marc Laplante doing the fire hydrant challenge. Lawrence STUDENTS, Take a picture of the hydrant before and after you shovel it out, receive a Dunkins gift card and help us get to the hydrant faster if we need it. GREAT JOB!
