Chief Financial Officer Jimmy Patronis cheered the signing of benefits for fire investigators into law.
Gov. Ron DeSantis on Friday signed legislation (SB 838) to allow state-certified fire and explosives investigators to be eligible for benefits under existing firefighter cancer coverage in the state of Florida.
“Florida’s firefighters and investigators never fail to answer the call and work to protect our homes, businesses, and communities at a moment’s notice,” Patronis said.
New Smyrna Beach Republican Sen. Tommy Wright sponsored the bill during the Legislative Session.
“Thank you to Gov. DeSantis for signing Senate Bill 838 and to CFO Jimmy Patronis for being a champion for Florida’s firefighters and fire investigators,” Wright said.
