This past March, for the first time, the nation’s oldest and largest organization of law enforcement officers—the Fraternal Order of Police—joined forces with the nation’s oldest and largest union of professional firefighters—the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF).
Rank-and-file law enforcement officers and firefighters traveled together to our Nation’s capital to highlight the important issues facing our public safety organizations. They shared with Congress the challenges of public safety officers, including the right of public safety officers to collectively bargain, protecting due process for officers and firefighters, and repealing the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and Government Pension Offset (GPO)!
On this episode of the Blue View Podcast, National FOP President Patrick Yoes sits down with IAFF General President Ed Kelly to discuss the two organizations and their shared fight for fairness.
