“Before you take on a fight you need to have your own house in order . I’m proud to tell you our house is in order.” -Edward A. Kelly

I am proud of the results our union has achieved for members, their families, and our communities since our last International Association of Fire Fighters Convention. As we kick off #IAFF57, know this: our International Association of Fire Fighters goes Wherever the Fight Is – and we always will.

From fires, to floods, to rescues of all kinds, firefighters are the heroes we call when lives are at stake. And in Massachusetts, we believe that our heroes should be well-prepared and well-protected. Honored to welcome the @IAFFOfficial Convention to Boston!

Just a few weeks ago, Massachusetts mandated the removal of PFAS from #firefighter protective gear. In my new op-ed for Boston Globe Opinion, I lay out how MA's new law will save firefighters' lives & why it’s time for other states to follow their lead. ⬇️ bostonglobe.com/2024/08/27/opi…

The gear that firefighters wear to save lives shouldn’t be putting their own in danger. Proud to be one of the first states to remove toxic forever chemicals from firefighting equipment. Thank you, President Kelly and International Association of Fire Fighters.

Serving as International Association of Fire Fighters's General President is a privilege.
