NYC Fire Officers union back Eric Adams for mayor (NYC)

New York’s bravest think Eric Adams is the best candidate to lead New York City’s effort to extinguish the flames of the devastating coronavirus pandemic as our next mayor.

The Uniformed Firefighters Officers Association on Tuesday will endorse Adams for mayor in the June 22 Democratic primary, citing the current Brooklyn borough president’s background and experience as a police officer.

“After careful consideration, the UFOA Executive Board unanimously endorsed Eric Adams. Being born and raised in New York City and patrolling the streets of the city as a uniformed member of the NYPD, it is evident that Eric Adams is the right choice to lead the city out of these trying times,” said UFOA president Jake Lemonda.

“The Uniformed Fire Officers Association encourages all New York City residents to support Adams in the upcoming Primary and General Election, as someone who understands New Yorkers – because he is one and has served them his whole career.”
