An important message from NCSFA President, Scott Rogers.

Friends, as this years' President of the NCSFA, it is one of my goals to see firefighters receive some protection and assistance in the event they contract cancer as a result of their duties as a firefighter. We have been able to convince many in the halls of our legislature just how important this is and have a bill that will provide special insurance for all firefighters in the state including volunteers at no cost to the department or individual (HB535). Now we have to get it passed!

I would like to personally invite each of you to attend legislative day this year or have someone from your department attend. We really need your support.

The North Carolina Fire Service Legislative Day is May 5th. It is critical we show our support and let our Representatives know what the key issues are for the fire service in North Carolina. Please plan to attend and make our voices heard.

When: May 5, 2021 at 8 a.m.

Where: NC Department of Insurance Albemarle Building, 325 N. Salisbury St, Raleigh, NC. 27603-5926

Please feel free to share this invitation with all your fire service friends as well.

Respectfully,

Scott Rogers

Bissette is currently 1st Vice President of the ECFA and a Battalion Chief with Wilson Fire Rescue Services.
