Firefighters Support Amended Compacts

The California State Firefighters' Association announced their endorsement of the amended compacts pending in the Assembly. "Supporting these compacts will bring a significant revenue stream to the state of California which is critical to the maintenance of publics services in these tight economic times," said CSFA president Kevin Nida.

Joining the CSFA in calling for compact ratification is the Safety Employees' Benefit Association, which represents more than 3,100 San Bernardino County deputy sheriffs; district attorneys, coroner and welfare fraud investigators; probation and corrections officers; HAZMAT environmental and health specialists as well as Big Bear firefighters and Apple Valley firefighters.
