If @StPeteFL wants to wage war over the cancer benefits debate – I’m ready. They’re splitting hairs with a first responder’s life. We must not allow these heroes to slip into a bureaucratic hole. #FlaPol

One way @PFFG947 & @GSOFireDept are fighting cancer is by deconning on scene. Cancer committee designed a shower that attaches to 2.5" discharge making gross decon manageable for individuals #LessTalkMoreAction #TogetherWeRise @IAFFNewsDesk @PFFPNC

I can't even begin to express my disappointment, frustration, and ANGER! It's incomprehensible that 45 other states have this coverage but Florida doesn't! What's even more incomprehensible is that ONE PERSON is preventing it. 🤬🤬 wftv.com/news/local/9-i…
