About

Mission
The mission of the Firefighters and EMS Fund is simple: to provide a grassroots voice for firefighters across the country in the state and local political process.

Our mission begins by supporting ballot initiatives and working to elect political leaders at the state and local level that understand our firefighters’ and public safety officers’ interests. We don’t just want to start the discussion on issues affecting American’s firefighters and EMS technicians, we seek to use political action to solve the very real problems that have made firefighters’ and first responders’ jobs more dangerous and thankless.

Advocate for funding to support local and state public safety and first response units
Be a voice striving to provide real and meaningful benefits to firefighters
Hold state and local public officials that prioritize frivolous spending while ignoring the very real funding problems experienced by their own local fire departments accountable for their mismanaged priorities
