Professional Firefighters of Eastern Missouri stand behind candidates who stand behind us. Our members need leaders in office who pick up the phone when public safety issues come across their desk. Today we are releasing our endorsement list for candidates across the state who we believe will fight for fire fighters and and our families.

They are not all incumbents with long records. Some, like Claire Heinrich () running for District 110, are newer voices who came into our hall and showed up for our members before we ever asked them to. These candidates are going to need your support leading into August and November. Please share our endorsements with your friends and family, and this fall let's elect leaders who try to make our lives better.

Never leave children unattended around water, even for a moment. That includes bathtubs and splash pads. Drowning can happen quietly so stay within arm’s reach during bath time and avoid distractions like phones or stepping away “just for a second.”

Supporting American workers helps keep our communities strong. A good cookout brings people together, and so does supporting the folks who make the products we use every day. Buy Union whenever possible and grill on!

Keep a look out this summer and you’ll see our members out in the community collecting for the Muscular Dystrophy Association during our annual Fill the Boot campaign.

For decades, we've proudly partnered with MDA to support research, care, summer camps, and families affected by neuromuscular diseases. Every dollar donated helps make a real difference! When you see the boots out, we hope you’ll consider stopping by and supporting the cause.

In the fire service exposure to trauma is part of the job. It can build over time and affect us on- and off-duty. Recognizing it early and talking about it matters.

If you’re struggling, you’re not alone. Reach out to a peer support member or someone you trust. Taking care of your mental health is part of doing the job too.

Wearing a properly fitted life jacket is one of the simplest ways to stay safe near the water. Have them on, not just nearby!

We honor the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their sacrifice is the reason we are able to raise our families and carry on the work we believe in. It is a debt that can never be repaid, but it will never be forgotten.
