Mesa (Arizona) Fire & Medical Dept

Mesa is lucky to have public servants like Vice Mayor Somers and Fire Chief Cameli. Both have dedicated themselves to serving the community with integrity, skill, and heart — and made the city stronger in the process. Congratulations to both on being named one of America's 250 Public Service Champions.

Firefighters are on the front lines of community safety. I met with chiefs and members of @PHXFire, @MesaFireDept, and @ScottsdaleFire to discuss staffing and equipment grants, emergency communications, and smarter safety standards so we can prevent disasters before they start.
