A decade ago, nine out of 10 firefighter line-of-duty injury claims were denied by Texas municipalities and their workers comp carriers. We’ve worked with Texas legislators to improve the system and denials are far less common now, but cases like that of seriously injured Fort Worth firefighter Caleb Halvorson remain infuriating. Delaying his treatment was inexcusable. Thanks to Representative Jared Patterson and John McQueeney for Texas for your support of Texas firefighters. We'll keep working until the system does not ever require community outrage for approval of proper treatment of line-of-duty injuries. With Fort Worth Professional Firefighters Local 440.
