🔥 Retired #firefighter and former Canton Firefighters IAFF Local 249 president Carl Jordan will speak today before the Senate Finance Committee on ending the unfair WEP/GPO penalties on retired members.

WEP/GPO denies Social Security benefits for retired fire fighters and public workers because they chose a career in public service.
The #IAFF calls on Congress to end WEP/GPO to ensure that fire fighters and other public workers can retire with dignity and receive the full benefits they have earned.

All I can say is this: became a member of CFD in 1996. At that time there were 32 Stations. Almost 30 years later, a huge increase in population density, housing, apartments and business…. And only 3 additional Stations have been built. Just saying, something definitely wrong here.
At the end of the day does it matter? Norwich will still cover the runs just like other areas that are “Columbus territory”. Because Columbus relies on the townships to cover what they can’t.
Columbus can’t cover their own runs now. Why don’t you cancel all mutual aid and see if you can swing your own runs for 1 day.

I’m starting to think firefighting is hard on the hairline 🤔
That is really cool! Now if they could all just figure out a way to get the paramedics off the transport units before 20 years. Oh well maybe next time
Great food, even better people!
