IAFF Legislative Conference 2009!
Washington, DC The President, Vice President, and a member at large traveled to Washington DC . The IAFF sponsors the annual Alfred J. Whitehead Legislative Conference as an opportunity for our nation's firefighters to persuade their elected officials to vote more favorably on firefighters issues. While municipal fire departments have a local government to touch and feel...the federal fire departments do not. Congress is like our "state governors" are to municipals. This was our opportunity to make a difference for all firefighters, especially us! Frankly, we were extremely pleased with not only the feedback, but also the reception of their offices and our presentations. There were also many awesome guess speakers: VP Biden, Speaker of the House Pelosi, and Sen. Lieberman. See the web casts at http://www.iaff.org/Events/2009LegCon/coverage.htm for more information.
California Senator Dianne Feinstein received a token of our appreciation, as did Congressman Jim Costa (CA-20).
February 2009 more to come.
