On April 2, NAEMT President Patrick Moore led a delegation of 10 NAEMT leaders in visits to congressional leaders and federal agencies. They met with several United States senators and congressmen and with staff at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Department of Homeland Security. That evening, the delegation represented NAEMT at the annual Congressional Fire Services Institute dinner.
President Moore noted, “Representing the professional interests of EMS practitioners to our leaders in Washington, D.C. is some of the most important work we do at NAEMT. By actively voicing our positions and concerns, we help ensure that our government leaders understand the EMS perspective when developing policies, regulations and programs.”
