Clean Slate Victory!

This was a first!

Thank you to everyone who worked the polls yesterday. With your help, we were able to secure a clean slate victory as well as remove a councilman who consistently worked against us. 

We sent a strong message yesterday: “Firefighter support is valuable and not to be taken advantage of.”

Our voice matters, your actions send a message.

This is how we continue to grow the department and not allow politicians to take us back to 115 firefighters and consistently working out of pick-up trucks.

Your continued support is key to the future success of our Local.

Great job and be, proud of your efforts!
