@thehill Walker allowed a trump to convert himself from a sports icon into a political fool solely at the request of another fool-Trump!!

Honored to represent Kentuckys Fire Fighters at the 2022 IAFF Legislative Conference. And a special thanks to Congressmen Guthrie, Comer, Rogers, Barr and Yarmuth for allowing us to discuss our legislative issues with them.

HB 56 (COVID LODD for First Responders) sponsored by Rep. T. Huff and HB 69 (COVID Presumption) sponsored by Rep. Blanton passed out of the House today!!! Now on to the Senate!

This has been one of the toughest nights in Kentucky’s history, with multiple counties impacted and a significant loss of life. I have declared a state of emergency and submitted a request to @POTUS for an immediate federal emergency declaration. https://t.co/KmMOl95t1N

As a concerned grandparent of 3 in the Ashland Independent School District, why hasn’t Superintendent Howard released the data regarding the number of children out due to COVID-19 as requested by the Daily Independent?
I heard there were 250 out Friday just at the middle school!

Boyd County health officials are reporting 222 cases of COVID-19 since Tuesday.

Over half are children younger than 18 including a 20-day-old baby girl. #WKYT

The Kentucky Fire Commission just honored Howdy Kurtsinger (via resolution) upon his retirement effective 3/30/2021. 49 years in the fire service. The last 17 with the Fire Commission. Every fire fighter in Kentucky, past, present and future owe Howdy a debt of gratitude!!

Thank you @kychrismcdaniel and others for sponsoring SB169 “an act relating to duty-related disability benefits.” The bill passes unanimously in the Senate State and Local Govt Committee. #KYGA21 #publicsafetyfirst

[KY FIREFIGHTERS @KPFF_IAFF]

Vote no on HB 120. This bill harms citizens by reducing their fire & EMS protection at the same time raises their taxes. @Kyrepmeredith #publicsafetyfirst #kyga21

[KY FIREFIGHTERS @KPFF_IAFF]

Vote no on #HB120. HB 120 raises taxes and compromises your public safety. @kyhousedems #KYGA21 #publicsafetyfirst

@IAFF9th @COProFFs @IAFFNewsDesk Brother Ray. I wish you well in your retirement. You have been a true champion of the members of the IAFF and will most certainly be missed. Hope to see you soon!!

Despite the temptation for a DIY fireworks display - it’s safer to leave the pyrotechnics to the professionals.

Legislation passed in the 2020 session will help CERS employers struggling to pay increased pension costs. SB 249 resets the amortization period and freezes CERS rates for one year. See how that impacts city costs in City Limit. https://t.co/c7m8nsS1ZB

Missouri does the right thing and makes COVID-19 a presumed on the job illness under workers compensation. https://t.co/fdIfBCetKl
