Happy Independence Day from your Virginia firefighters! We hope you have a wonderful time celebrating with family and friends. Please be safe while grilling, swimming and especially with any type of firework, sparkler or noisemaker.

We pray for our brothers and sisters, and all their family and friends, in Idaho. As firefighters, we have an inherently dangerous profession. But this cowardly act of violence toward brave firefighters adds a new depth of danger to our job.

Proud to stand with the families of our fallen members on Capitol Hill this week. We met with our elected members of Congress to advocate for the passage of the Honoring Our Fallen Heroes Act of 2025 (S.237/HR.1269) - to expand PSOB to cover occupational cancer.

Today, we reflect on the supreme sacrifice made by members of our armed forces in defense of our country. May we always remember and honor their service.

We extend our condolences to the friends & family of Congressman Gerry Connolly. A staunch advocate for the fire service in his roles with the US House of Representatives and the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors, his wisdom & experience will be missed. nbcwashington.com/news/local/nor…

A powerful video on the devastating toll occupational cancer is having on our nation's firefighters. This is reason the VPFF, and countless other fire organizations, are fighting for greater protections and coverage for cancer screening and care. youtu.be/s2f_F4BD7vQ?si…

The calm in the midst of a 24/7/365 storm, we celebrate our communications officers! Whether called 911 operators, dispatchers or communications officers, they are the *first* first responders who provide critical assistance to our citizens, law enforcement and firefighters.
