🥎🔥 THAT’S A WRAP! 🔥🥎

Another IAFF MDA Softball Tournament is officially in the books!

UFD Teams 1 & 2 represented Utica Professional Firefighters Local 32, competing against IAFF locals from across the United States. After a great tournament run, UFD Team 2 battled their way to the Bracket #2 Championship, where they ultimately fell to Virginia Beach.

While the competition on the field is always a highlight, this weekend is about much more than softball. It gives our members an opportunity to spend time together, strengthen the brotherhood within Local 32, and build friendships with our IAFF brothers and sisters from across the country—all while supporting the incredible mission of the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA).

We’re proud of all of our members who made the trip, represented Local 32, and helped support such a great cause.

Until next year! 🥎🔥💪

IAFF Local 32 President Mark Nicoletta Jr. and Vice President Jerry Alsante spent the past week in Arlington, Texas, representing our membership at the 58th Convention of the International Association of Fire Fighters

The IAFF Convention brings firefighters and union leaders together from across the United States and Canada to debate the issues facing our profession, set the direction of our union, and make decisions that will impact firefighters for generations to come.

Just as important are the relationships built along the way. Mark and Jerry spent the week connecting with IAFF leaders and Locals from across the country, sharing ideas, learning from others, and building relationships that can be brought back home to strengthen Local 32 and better serve our members.

Whether it’s at the local, state, national, or international level, our focus remains the same: protecting our members, strengthening our union, and making sure Local 32 has a voice at the table.

We’re proud to represent Utica’s firefighters, and we’re ALL IN for Local 32.

Today, IAFF Local 32 is releasing this open letter to the Utica Common Council because the residents of our city deserve transparency.

On June 17, the Common Council gave their support to apply for a SAFER Grant. The very next day, the City filed for Interest Arbitration seeking to eliminate our negotiated minimum manning protections. When Local 32 proposed increasing minimum manning by just one firefighter per day to better protect our members and the public, the City responded by filing an Improper Practice charge against our union.

You can't support increasing staffing while simultaneously pursuing multiple avenues to reduce or eliminate the protections that ensure firefighters are on duty every day.

This isn't about politics. It's about public safety. If minimum manning disappears, the question isn't if service is affected, it's which neighborhood loses first?

We encourage every resident to read the letter and ask the same questions we're asking. Our firefighters remain committed to protecting this community, and we'll continue fighting for the staffing levels that keep both our members and the citizens of Utica safe.
