Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) and paramedics are medical professionals that protect families and communities 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Saving lives is a reward within itself, but many of these workers receive only cut-rate wages. 

Right now, the company contracted to provide emergency medical services to Buffalo and neighboring communities--Rural/Metro Corporation--pays its workers less on average than emergency workers in nearby cities such as Albany, Rochester and Syracuse, and less than the competition. Rural/Metro’s employees haven’t had a contract for months and may be forced into further actions to secure one. They need your help. 

Please tell Rural/Metro that paying low wages devalues the life-saving role of first responders and makes it difficult for them to survive financially. Tell them to bargain a fair contract.
