Bipartisan resolutions introduced last week supporting #npstw. Thank you to @SenAmyKlobuchar @SenTedBuddNC @NormaJTorres @RepBrianFitz for recognizing the lifesaving work of public safety telecommunicators. apcointl.org/psc/congress-re…

This week @SenAmyKlobuchar and @MarshaBlackburn reintroduced the Enhancing First Response Act. This common sense, bipartisan bill will improve public safety communications and provide 9-1-1 professionals with the recognition and support they deserve. klobuchar.senate.gov/public/…

Today @APCOIntl attended @NormaJTorres Swearing-in Day Celebration, marking the beginning of the 119th Congress! We look forward to working with the Congresswoman to enhance support for 9-1-1, especially through the federal reclassification of public safety telecommunicators.

It's time for OMB to recognize 911 pros as "Protective Service" occupations, not "clerical." Join our webinar July 17. We'll explain APCO’s strategy for input to OMB, how this relates to the 911 SAVES Act & what you can do to help. register.gotowebinar.com/reg…

Thank you @POTUS for recognizing #NPSTW! As President Biden puts it, public safety telecommunicators provide lifesaving work and "represent the very best of who we are as a country." We agree! content.govdelivery.com/atta…

Thank you very much Assistant Secretary @DavidsonNTIA for your strong advocacy on behalf of 9-1-1 professionals!
Every day, public safety telecommunicators bring calm during times of crisis. We owe them the best Next Generation 9-1-1 tools possible. Thank you all for your dedication and your service.

Thank you Congresswoman @DorisMatsui for joining as a cosponsor of the 911 SAVES Act and recognizing the protective nature of the work performed by 911 professionals! #911SAVES

Thank you @MCSheriffs for supporting reclassification of 911 professionals as Protective Service Occupations. Gathering critical suspect and safety info for LEOs, coaching callers through CPR, etc. - this isn't clerical work! #911SAVES
MCSA supports H.R. 6319, the 911 SAVES Act, which will reclassify 911 telecommunicators as a protective service occupation. Those who serve in these critical roles deserve the same support as other first responders. Thanks to @NormaJTorres and @RepBrianFitz for their leadership!

The 911 SAVES Act has been reintroduced in the House of Representatives and now has a bill number - H.R. 6319! This means it's time to ask your U.S. Representatives to join as a co-sponsor. #911SAVES apcointl.org/advocacy/take-a… Let’s get this done!

The FirstNet Health and Wellness Coalition has come together in a united voice about the needs of their responders. But now it’s time for our community leaders to step forward. We must act as one. #LifeatATT
