The tragic fire in Fall River shows the deadly consequences of understaffed fire departments. 4 firefighters per truck is the minimum. Anything less places communities, the public, and firefighters at risk. Cities have to prioritize public safety!

Four-person crews ensure fires are extinguished faster and occupants are rescued more quickly during emergencies. This is the nationally recognized minimum staffing standard for a reason - it keeps the public and FFs safe. It’s what Fall River - and all communities - deserve.

The International Association of Fire Fighters is leading the way when it comes to training our members on Hazard Materials Response. And we do it through the use of federal grant money - a funding source that is creative in the Labor movement. iaff.org/news/iaff-awar…

Proud to support my good friend Bob Brooks for Congress! As president of PPFFA & a retired FF he’s spent his life serving his community. I’ve seen how Brooks puts others 1st & stands up for those who need a voice, he’s the real deal.International Association of Fire Fighters lehighvalleynews.com/elections/fire…

All of us at the International Association of Fire Fighters are thinking of the families and loved ones impacted by today’s shooting, and the first responders who courageously responded to this senseless act of violence.

A proposal in Miami-Dade to shift the cost of Air Rescue to the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue District isn’t just unfair to taxpayers - it’s downright dangerous. Response times are already nearly twice the national standard. The District must invest in its own resources, not county subsidies.

Private equity has consolidated the fire apparatus market – driving up prices, increasing delays, & jeopardizing public safety in the process. Today, during a Senate hearing, I’ll call on Congress to increase oversight of the industry. Watch ⬇️ brnw.ch/21wVEdH

I was pleased to welcome Edward Kelly, President of @iaffofficial, who testified yesterday and led us in a moment of silence on the eve of 9/11. We will never forget the nearly 3,000 Americans who lost their lives that day, including 343 FDNY members & one NYC fire patrolman.
