Mayor Bowser: Respond to the D.C. emergency!

To DC Mayor Muriel Bowser:

We call on you to enact bold reform to address the egregious state of Washington D.C.'s Emergency Medical Service. EMS should operate independently from the fire department, and both the fire department and EMS should have all the resources they need to respond excellently to the city's calls for help.

Mayor Bowser: Respond to the D.C. emergency!
A medical director of DC emergency medical services just released a scathing resignation saying “people are dying needlessly because we’re moving too slow”. There are obvious solutions - but internal politics are holding up reform.

The Mayor’s office is being flooded with media calls - so right now is our best chance at winning the bold reform we need for our families' peace of mind -- for which insiders and experts have been calling for decades.

Sign and share the urgent petition with everyone.
