Welcome to

In front of nearly two dozen fire fighters, Governor Rick Scott honored them as he approved the construction of a new fallen-firefighter memorial in Tallahassee.

The memorial will be open for everyone at the state capitol to visit and honor those who have died in the line of duty.

The Governor also signed a bill into law allowing the Florida Chief Fire Marshal to better protect firefighters and the public.

“During today’s cabinet meeting we approved a measure to construct a Fallen Firefighters Memorial here at the capital. This monument will allow all visitors to reflect and appreciate the work of Florida’s Firefighters,” said Scott.

The new law goes into effect July 1st.
