Tell your elected officials about Tim's Act - HR 5631
By filling out the form below, the following message will be sent to both of your senators and your representative.
Dear [title] [last name],
Federal Wildland Firefighters need your support for the bipartisan Tim’s Act – HR 5631.
The increased intensity, frequency and duration of wildfires has the nation’s firefighters stretched thin. Federal Firefighters are leaving their jobs in large numbers due to low stagnant wages, housing insecurity, mental and physical health crises, and an absence of work-life balance.
This crisis coincides with a dramatic increase in the severity of fire seasons in the last twenty years. We must better manage public lands and protect communities threatened by fires, and to do so, we must take better care of wildland firefighters. These dedicated individuals desperately need comprehensive reform of position, wages, and benefits.
Please consider becoming a sponsor of HR 5631, the Tim Hart Wildland Firefighter Classification & Pay Parity Act.
Sincerely,
Friends, Family and Wildland Firefighters
