Support 9-1-1 Dispatchers

Teamsters Local 769 supports legislation to correct the federal classification of 9-1-1 professionals by reclassifying them as Protective Service Occupations as opposed to administrative/clerical occupations. We need your help. Momentum is building in Congress for a simple legislative fix. We are seeking the assistance of our members and others to TAKE ACTION and ask your elected officials to Support the 9-1-1 SAVES Act.

A New Bipartisan Senate Bill has been introduced and we are asking ALL of our members to support the 9-1-1 SAVES Act, which would appropriately reclassify public safety telecommunications workers with other “Protective” occupations (as opposed to administrative/clerical occupations) in the Standard Occupational Classification. Now it’s time for a full-court press on Congress.

EVEN IF YOU ALREADY TOOK ACTION, WE NEED YOU TO TAKE ACTION AGAIN.
Go to https://www.apcointl.org/take-action and fill out a form to generate an email to your U.S. Senators and Representatives, asking them to co-sponsor this common sense, zero-cost bill to reclassify public safety telecommunications workers as Protective Service Occupations.
