A HORRIBLE LOSS: @Westcom911 dispatchers are the unsung heroes we barely see. They save lives, but the night @UrbandalePolice Officer #JustinMartin and @DMPolice Sgt. Tony Beminio were killed in 2016 has marked them forever. They opened up to me for the first time @weareiowa5news

Today’s snow brought with it a large number of traffic problems. If you have to leave the house tonight drive slowly and carefully! #bestcom #arrivealive
Fed agency @OMBpress staff has failed the nation’s 9-1-1 professionals, deciding 9-1-1 call takers & dispatchers aren’t “protective” occupations. @realDonaldTrump @POTUS Please fix this! 9-1-1 professionals save lives. #911ProtectsMe apcointl.org/socinfo
