U.S. Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) is co-sponsoring legislation to help construct and upgrade fire stations across the Nation. The Facilitating Investments Required for Emergency Services to All Towns in Our Nation (FIRE STATION) Act will invest in our public safety and security by creating a $750,000,000 fund within the Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA). These funds would be used to build, renovate, and modernize fire and EMS department facilities across the Nation. “In all kinds of emergencies, firefighters and emergency medical technicians step up to perform essential, life-saving work for our communities,” Senator Casey said.
