The IAFF, who is one of the Democratic parties most reliable sources of funding will now quit donating to federal candidates because, as stated by General President Harold Schaitberger: members of Congress are not doing enough to support them.
As quoted:
“...until we see our friends in Congress be as committed to standing and fighting with us with the same level of intensity and ferocity as our enemies are trying to kill us, I’m turning the spigot off"
"Extreme right-wing conservative and so-called Tea Party politicians are coming after fire fighters, paramedics and all public workers with a vengeance across the United States."
"With the full support of our union’s Executive Board, we are turning off the spigot to federal candidates and federal parties, party committees and the super PACs that are created to support them."
