We are there when you need us, now we need you!
We ask that you contact your state reps and encourage them to support HB143. This bill will give the option for tier 3, hazardous duty, employees to move into the previous define benefit program. This will ensure that after many years of dangerous service to their community, they are able to retire with dignity.
If you didn't know, your firefighters do not pay into social security, therefore they do not qualify to drawl from it when they retire.
There is a shortage of public safety employees throughout the state. Surveys studies have revealed that the younger generations do not want to get into public safety, as there is no benefit to them anymore for the hazardous work performed. Many states that have gone to the hybrid plan, are now switching back to a defined benefit program because of this.
Thank you for your support!

Merry Christmas!
A very special and wonderful Christmas Eve!!!
Tonight Local 45 for the thirtieth (30th) consecutive year uplifts our community by sharing the true meaning of Christmas through giving and our βBeyond the Callβ program.
We would like to take this opportunity to THANK the numerous businesses and residents in the City of Newport and surrounding communities for their generosity throughout the years. An incredibly special THANK YOU goes out to Joseph Subaru of Florence βShare the Loveβ for their generous donation and to St. Elizabeth Fort Thomas ER, Waltz Center Lanes, New Riff Distilling and Jerzees Newport for personally sponsoring each child with gifts from βGiving Treesβ.
To all of the current and retired members along with their families, we want to also say THANK YOU for spending the time helping us prepare for tonight by shopping and or wrapping the gifts. Last but not least we want to thank Lieutenant Nick Brown and his family and the Peddicord family for continuing this tradition for the Local.
Our involvement would simply not be possible without the continuous support of the businesses and individuals in our local communities.
Thank you & Merry Christmas!! ... See MoreSee Less
