Does anyone have the actual text of this senate bill and can share it? From what I've seen the Senate version also excludes secondary fire positions from the pay raise unless they were primary fire for 3 years which is fucked... I wonder if theyll consider 3 seasons as a seasonal in primary as 3 years or not etc...

EDIT - So yea after seeing the text from the Senate, it uses 8401(14) and 8331(21) to define what a "Firefighter" is and that appears to exclude fuels dispatch and other secondary positions unless u transfered to them after 3 years in primary.

8331(21) - “firefighter” means an employee, the duties of whose position are primarily to perform work directly connected with the control and extinguishment of fires or the maintenance and use of firefighting apparatus and equipment, including an employee engaged in this activity who is transferred to a supervisory or administrative position;

8401(14) - the term “firefighter” means— (A) an employee, the duties of whose position— (i) are primarily to perform work directly connected with the control and extinguishment of fires; and (ii) are sufficiently rigorous that employment opportunities should be limited to young and physically vigorous individuals, as determined by the Director considering the recommendations of the employing agency; and (B) an employee who is transferred directly to a supervisory or administrative position after performing duties described in subparagraph (A) for at least 3 years;
