The webcast will be posted with a brief time delay and be available for viewing as the Conference progresses.

The annual Legislative Conference is the cornerstone of the IAFF's legislative efforts, and has led to significant victories on Capitol Hill — largely as a result of the relationships that local IAFF leaders have formed with their elected officials. 

This year's Conference will feature presentations from prominent national figures from both sides of the aisle.

"The lineup of speakers is a testament to our great union and to the reputation we have built as a powerful political force," says IAFF General President Harold Schaitberger.

What's New at KPFF
Welcome to the KPFFA new site!

Updated On: Jan 14, 2010 (08:37:00)

The Kentucky Professional Fire Fighters are made up of 42 fire fighter & EMS unions throughout Kentucky. We have unions as small as 6 members to unions over 650 members.

We have grown dramatically over the last 10 years. The last 10 years may have brought growth in ways that has helped us, but the history of K.P.F.F started many years ago. K.P.F.F. started over 50 years ago at the first convention held in Owensboro, Ky.

Where we may not shine in membership numbers like some state associations we have stayed true and strong in other ways that prove that we are "service oriented" to our members. We have a strong political campaign in our state capital. We call on, meet with and bang on the doors of our politicians to better the lives and welfare of our firefighters/EMS members. We give back to our members by aiding our locals with financial means to go to seminars and conventions. We must educate our locals in grassroots politics
