Pass Bill To Cover Workers Comp For Florida's First Responders Suffering From PTSD!

The Issue

Our brother Stevie LaDue a city of Tampa Firefighter of 29 years was denied a workers compensation claim for mental injury and committed suicide and we are urging all Florida residents to contact your State Legislators to pass the following Bills: House Bill 227 proposed by Representative Willhite and Senate Bill 376 proposed by Senator Book allowing First Responders to file a Workers Compensation for mental injury not accompanied by a physical injury. Please sign this petition and email, write, or call your local State Representative and State Senator. Time is of the essence as these Bills are headed to committee in the next few weeks. Our goal is to prevent this from happening to another First Responder and their families before its too late.
