Help needed from Niagara County First Responders:
Andy is endorsed and supported by the Niagara County Volunteer Fireman's Association. Please come out and vote if you can. It is vital to WNY that we are represented!
On Wednesday Aug 19 from 10:30 to 1530 hours there is an election for 2nd Vice President
within the Firefighters Association of the State of New York. This is a contested race with
two other candidates from OTHER parts of New York States seeking this leadership position.
I am the only Candidate from the Western part of NYS seeking this position. It would be a definite asset to have someone from Western New York representing the Volunteer Fire
Service in New York State.
I am asking you and any members to come out to Holiday Valley Ski Resort to vote and
support me in this endeavor. This will be a close race and every vote will count. Please express to your members the extreme importance of this election.
If anyone has any questions about the election or my qualifications to seek this position,
please email me at [email protected] or call me 716/913-2818.

After years of advocacy by FASNY, the NYS Assembly has passed landmark legislation increasing the volunteer firefighter and EMS tax credit from $200 to $800, the first increase since the program was established nearly 20 years ago.

This legislation, S.6233-A (Sen. Martinez) / A.6790-A (MOA McMahon), also removes outdated restrictions that prevented volunteers from receiving both the state income tax credit and locally authorized property tax exemptions, delivering long-overdue support for volunteer emergency responders across New York state.

“This is a transformational moment for volunteer emergency services in New York State,” said FASNY First Vice President, Donald J. Farrell. “Quadrupling the volunteer firefighter and EMS tax credit from $200 to $800 sends a powerful message that New York recognizes the critical role volunteers play in protecting communities every day.”

As volunteer departments statewide continue to face recruitment and retention challenges, the legislation represents one of the most significant investments in volunteer emergency services in decades.

The Senate is expected to advance the measure in the coming days.
