Mark Picks Up Endorsement from Professional Firefighters

Mark Campaign

DALTON, Mass. — Paul Mark, Democratic candidate for state representative in the 2nd Berkshire District, picked up the endorsement of the Professional Firefighters of Massachusetts last week. The association boasts 12,000 members across 200 local outfits of the International Association of Firefighters.

“The Professional Firefighters of Massachusetts endorsement demonstrates that my vow to fully fund local aid is vital to ensuring the safety of our communities,” said Mark upon receiving the Firefighters’ endorsement.

The PFFM’s backing rounds out Mark’s endorsements from other public safety trade groups that represent police officers and ambulance workers.

“I’m proud that the public safety professionals who lay themselves on the line every day are also lining up to back me,” Mark added.

Mark has earned more political endorsements than all his opponents combined. A full list of his endorsements is available at www.votepaulmark.com.
