IAFF DVP Walsh, WSCFF PR Chair Reese and myself had a chance to talk virtually to Wa. State Labor Council President Brown and Secretary-Treasurer Sims. Grateful for our labor partners and their willingness to talk about worker issues.
Had the opportunity to help pack the next trailer bound for Peru. The WSCFF has a long history of supporting the Peruvian Fire Service. Thanks to those departments who provided Fire and EMS equipment.
Excellent work Vancouver Firefighters on sharing your messages with your local Labor Council. Every Local should be a member of their state, local, and regional Labor councils. A rising tide raises all ships. #IAFF#IAFF7thDistrict#1U @WSCFF_UNION @rreese1805
I was honored to collaborate with these other pro's and deliver hopefully some useful, timely and effective information to members at #ALTSHR22. The IAFF and State Associations doing some important stuff out there for our members and their families. #IAFF
One of my favorite parts about #ALTS is when our board member shows us how our local can apply what he learned to improve the lives of our members. Great things coming out of the #IAFF Financial Core! #MERP@becker_kurt@WSCFFSecTreas @IAFFNewsDesk @IAFFPresident@IAFFGSTLima

Yesterday we were notified of the LODD of Bro Moya, 51 from our Jacksonville FL Local 122. He died on Aug. 17th from COVID. We are now over 40 LODD’s from this virus. If you can, roll up our sleeves and get vaccinated to prevent any more of these LODD’s.
