Last week, Senator Rosen <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosen.senate.gov\/es\/2023\/04\/10\/at-las-vegas-fire-station-senator-rosen-calls-on-the-senate-to-pass-bill-to-help-hire-more-firefighters-purchase-lifesaving-equipment\/\">visited a local fire department in Las Vegas<\/a> to highlight the need for the Senate to pass this legislation. Earlier this year, Senator Rosen helped <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosen.senate.gov\/es\/2023\/03\/16\/rosen-helps-advance-legislation-to-provide-funding-for-fire-departments-hire-more-firefighters\/\">advance<\/a> the <em>Fire Grants and Safety Act<\/em> out of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhether it&#8217;s battling fires that threaten our communities or swiftly responding to emergencies, Nevadans rely on our firefighters to keep our state safe. I\u2019m glad my Senate colleagues followed my call to pass this bipartisan legislation so we can give local fire departments the funding they need to purchase life-saving equipment and hire more firefighters,\u201d <strong>dijo el Senador Rosen.<\/strong> \u201cAs this legislation heads to the House of Representatives, I\u2019ll continue pushing to ensure it\u2019s signed into law quickly.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI joined Senator Rosen last week at Station 108 in Las Vegas to call on Congress to pass the <em>Fire Grants and Safety Act<\/em>, and I want to thank her for helping pass it today,\u201d <strong>said Fernando Gray, Las Vegas Fire and Rescue Chief. <\/strong>\u201cThis will bring critical funding for Nevada\u2019s firefighters and allow us to hire more firefighters, as well as give us equipment to be more effective in our life-saving efforts.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Fire Grants and Safety Act will bring needed resources to the local fire departments who work every day to keep our communities safe,\u201d <strong>said Reno Fire Chief David Cochran.<\/strong> \u201cWe thank Senator Rosen for helping pass this bill to support our firefighters and our departments.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThese grant programs will allow us to obtain needed protective, life-saving equipment and hire more firefighters, providing an increased ability for fire departments to respond to emergencies,\u201d<strong> said Sean Slamon, Carson City Fire Department Chief.<\/strong> \u201cWe appreciate Senator Rosen\u2019s work on behalf of Nevada firefighters and helping to see that these critical programs continue.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Specifically, the <em>Fire Grants and Safety Act <\/em>would reauthorize the Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) Program and Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER) Program, which help fund fire departments across the United States to purchase equipment and hire more firefighters. This bill would also increase the annual authorization for the U.S. Fire Administration by about $20 million while maintaining the authorized annual funding level for SAFER and AFG at $750 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a leader in the effort to support first responders, Senator Rosen continues to stand up for firefighters in the face of more bruising wildfire seasons in Nevada in recent years. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rosen.senate.gov\/es\/2022\/06\/21\/following-rosens-efforts-wildland-firefighters-to-receive-historic-pay-raise\/\">Last year<\/a>, she helped deliver a historic pay raise and benefits funding for federal wildland firefighters through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.
