Members of Evansville Professional Firefighter’s Local 357 PAC recognize that public safety is one of the primary responsibilities of local government. Based on the results of our recent candidate’s night, and based on historical support of public safety concerns, we believe the above noted candidates are particularly aware of this responsibility, and have a stated willingness to provide our local first responders with the tools and funding they need to ensure continued excellence in service. We encourage the citizens of Evansville to consider these endorsements when they go to the polls this spring to decide the candidates who will run in the fall general elections.
