Thank you President Treannie and Local 2252.

It’s about our fire fighters. It’s about our families. It’s personal. I’m proud to accept the nomination to serve as your Information Officer. I look forward to Election Day at Convention.

68% of fire fighters will receive a Cancer diagnosis. 22% greater than the general public That’s why it’s so important that the PFFM does the work we do. That’s why it’s personal. #ItsPersonal

The PFFM worked to increase the Public Safety Officer Benefit(PSOB) to care for families whose fire fighters didn’t come home. The benefit doubled and helped those families in immeasurable ways. That’s why it’s personal. #ItsPersonal

Manpower saves lives. The PFFM fights for it, the Fire Chiefs and the NFPA agree. But it’s a daily fight for our Locals. Manpower saves fire fighter lives and civilian lives. It’s why we fight. It’s why it’s personal. #ItsPersonal

It’s not just about saving contracts. It’s about using them to negotiate living wages for our fire fighters. It’s about supporting our 12,000 fire fitters across MA and their families. It’s about our fire fighters. It’s personal. #ItsPersonal

The PFFM works to protect our fire fighters from the health risks of our profession like the toxic chemicals in our gear. We fight to keep fire fighters healthy & health screenings for early detection when we are not. It’s about fire fighter health. It’s personal. #ItsPersonal

Let’s go!! It’s Election Day! It’s personal. Today we charter the course for the future of the PFFM. Today we vote to care for our fire fighters, our families, and the future of our profession. Take it personal. Vote accordingly. #ItsPersonal

Thank you to the delegates of the PFFM for re-electing me as your Information Officer. I am honored to continue serving the great fire fighters across Massachusetts.
