State Legislative Information

As the the voice of America's volunteer emergency services, the NVFC not only educates Federal legislators in Washington, but also serves as an information source for successful state legislative initiatives from across the country that have helped the fire service. The NVFC hopes that this resource will encourage the fire service to work to pass these initiatives in their state houses.
