Editorial: Go beyond voter support for fire departments and EMS

On Tuesday, a ballot question asked Pennsylvanians to take a side on the Municipal Fire and EMS Services Loan Measure.
That very formal-sounding title boils down to a simple idea. Should municipal fire departments and ambulance companies be able to borrow from the state’s loan fund to support capital upgrades? Seems like a kind of obvious call, right? Voters agreed, with 73% supporting the measure.
But what does that “yes” vote really mean?
The Volunteer Loan Assistance Program was created in 1976. It is a pool of money generated by bond issues that makes it possible for the volunteer fire and EMS companies that make up the largest chunk of first responder organizations in Pennsylvania to obtain low-interest loans to buy their equipment and invest in their infrastructure. ....

Guest column: Voters asked to consider ballot question about helping fund municipal fire companies

In the upcoming May 18 primary election, voters will have the opportunity to vote on a ballot referendum impacting some of our fire departments in the commonwealth.
While much attention has been given to the Constitutional amendments to be voted on dealing with the emergency declaration authority of this and future governors, what has been lacking in the public discussion is an important vote Pennsylvanians will make in support of our career fire departments.
Beginning in 2017, a bipartisan, bicameral group of lawmakers, emergency services providers and local officials served on a statewide commission with the task of looking at what could be done legislatively to assist our career and volunteer fire and EMS organizations. Numerous recommendations were incorporated into the commissionâs final report. ....

Primary voters will be asked to decide three amendments to state constitution, and fire referendum

Since the current Pennsylvania Constitution was adopted in 1968, itâs been amended more than 40 times.
In this yearâs primary, set for May 18, voters have the opportunity to add an additional three amendments.
First, there is a proposed amendment that would prohibit the denial of an individualâs rights under Pennsylvania law because of their race or ethnicity. The proposal has proven to be largely uncontroversial and has stirred no organized opposition.
Two other proposed amendments, on the other hand, have stirred much more urgent debate. Both arising from the coronavirus pandemic, one would automatically end any disaster declarations after 21 days and prevent a governor from extending it, regardless of the severity of the emergency, unless the Legislature also agrees. The other, related amendment would give the Legislature the power to terminate or extend a disaster declaration without the governorâs approval. ....
