I was very successful this last year in passing a bill that made PTSD for first responders for police and firefighters a workman's comp claim. But there's some gaps that we need to do in there. It doesn't cover EMS workers if they're not directly impacted or directly associated with the fire department. And so that's a bill that we put out last year. That's another one that we're going to work on again this year. (03:23–03:31)
CLAIM
Asserts that the PTSD workman's comp bill does not cover EMS workers not associated with the fire department.
