IMPORTANT - MPFFU PRIMARY Election Endorsements

Updated On: Jul 19, 2010 (21:09:00)
Attached is a two page document listing the candidates that have been endorsed by the Michigan Professional Fire Fighters Union for the primary election on August 3rd.

The MPFFU Executive Board considered several factors in making these endorsements including previous voting records, satisfactory completion of our MPFFU Candidate Questionnaire, interviews directly with many of the candidates, recommendations by local unions, advice and counsel of our lobbyist, Melissa Yutzey, the general consensus of the strength of the candidates campaign, and the overall long term benefit to our membership.

Please distribute this list to your entire membership and encourage them to share it with their family and friends.

After the results of the primary election are reviewed, a new list of endorsements will be distributed for the general election in November.
