(Brevard County, Fla.) - The Brevard County Professional Firefighters recently endorsed Mike Clelland as a candidate for the Florida Senate.
During a meeting at the Brevard County Professional Firefighters' Union Hall, Mike Clelland was in attendance to receive his letter of endorsement and present a class to local firefighters on the Heart and Lung Bill and presumptive laws. Firefighters are routinely exposed to harmful conditions and despite advances in protective equipment, firefighters are at increased risk for cancer and other diseases. These important laws protect firefighters in the event they are diagnosed with respiratory, cardiac, or cancer related ailments.
The Brevard County Professional Firefighters chose to endorse Mike Clelland because of Mr. Clelland's commitment to ensuring the firefighters serving in their communities can enjoy a safe and healthy career.
Mr. Clelland is currently running for Florida Senate. As a retired firefighter, Mr. Clelland has dedicated his career to public service and protecting the families of Central Florida. Mike is fed up with the way politicians in Tallahassee conduct themselves. He's committed to finding common sense solutions that work for real people.
Mike has an Associate's Degree in Fire Science, a Bachelor's Degree in Political Science and a law degree from Florida A&M. Mr. Clelland specializes in providing legal services to first responders throughout Central Florida, and feels as though his hard work and commitment can be more beneficial if he can reach out to more people as part of the Florida Senate.
The Brevard County Professional Firefighters extends are sincerest gratitude for all the efforts that Mike Clelland is putting forth for firefighters, the community and the State of Florida. To learn more about Mike Clelland or make a campaign donation, please visit ClellandForFlorida.com
