When one of our @MilFireDept members suffered an unimaginable loss, the @PFFW Charitable Foundation stepped up to help. Thank you so much to President Biggart and his team for their unexpected and generous help.
Your Milwaukee Fire Department would like for you to please take a moment to inform your elected officials about what YOUR priorities are and where the funding of crucial city services for 2027 should be allocated: Make your voice heard! Go to engage.milwaukee.gov/budget
@MilFireDept has fire in a large shredder and surrounding materials near 16/Bruce. 3rd Alarm. Contained but not under control. Media briefing at 5pm near 16th & Bruce.

Congratulations to @MilFireDept Lt. Zietlow on receiving @MKE_OEM’s Distinguished Fire Department Liaison Award during #EMSWeek2026
Strong EMS systems depend on strong communication and these leaders help make that happen every day.
From sharing critical operational updates to ensuring EMS clinicians stay current on training, education, guidelines, and evolving patient care priorities, their leadership strengthens our entire system.
Grateful for their partnership and for the EMS clinicians across Milwaukee County they help support every day.

“That was trust.”
For Hero Week, @MilFireDept HEO Jermaine “JP” Perry shared what went through his mind during last year’s Mother’s Day fire rescue — and the trust he had in his team.
Chief @alipski1 explains why firefighters like JP stand out beyond just training.
