Today, the Uniformed Firefighters Association (UFA) announced that they are endorsing Congressman Anthony Weiner for Mayor of New York City. The endorsement took place outside of the quarters of Engine Company 212 in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, one of six fire companies closed by the Bloomberg Administration.
The UFA represents 22,000 active and retired New York City firefighters and is the largest firefighters union local in the world.
UFA President Steve Cassidy:
"New York’s Bravest are on the front line everyday fighting for New Yorkers, and Congressman Weiner understands the local public safety issues that affect our city, our firefighters and the citizens we are sworn to protect.”
