“I want firefighters. We talk about public safety. I understand law enforcement is a huge element of public safety, but so are the firefighting services.”
“I do think it would be great if they could figure out other areas where they could save some money."

Amanda is a Seattle Fire Fighter and paramedic who provides lifesaving medical care when Seattle residents need it most.
All Seattle Fire Fighters are trained EMTs, and the city’s world-renowned Medic One program has made Seattle a national leader in emergency medical response.
Keeping that response strong requires ensuring Seattle Fire Fighters have the staffing and resources needed to respond quickly and effectively when every second counts. Learn more at FireFightersSaveLives.com.
For Marcus, serving as a Seattle Fire Fighter is a family tradition. As part of a multi-generational Seattle Fire Fighter family, Marcus and his parents have dedicated over six decades to the Seattle Fire Department. Today, he carries on their legacy at Station 24 in Bitter Lake.

Today's incident is a reminder of the risks Fire Fighters face and the importance of maintaining a well-staffed, well-resourced Fire Department. Our city must ensure Fire Fighters have the personnel, equipment, and resources they need to protect our communities– and one another.

🔥 On this day in #firefighter history in 1889, the Great Seattle #Fire destroyed the entire central business district.
The city responded by establishing @SeattleFire, increasing the number of hydrants, and changing the city's building codes. @Iaff27
