Thank you to our first responders, National Weather Service team members, meteorologists, telecommunicators, utility workers and more for being there for our people during dangerous weather. You keep Kentuckians safe and informed. I'm grateful.

We'll get through this together.

Telecommunicators, often called dispatchers, are the unsung heroes of emergency response—usually the first voice you hear in a crisis.

Without their tireless, often stressful work, the system wouldn’t function.

It’s National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week, when we honor the extraordinary role 9-1-1 operators play in emergency response.
 
I introduced bipartisan legislation to modernize 9-1-1 systems and help call centers handle texts, photos, and videos during an emergency.

"Today marks the start of National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week. 911 dispatchers and emergency phone operators save lives daily. We must thank them for all they do by fighting to protect their work from damaging budget cuts.”
AFSCME’s Saunders: 911 dispatchers deserve respect, not defunding
AFSCME President Lee Saunders released the following statement recognizing National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week, which runs from April 13-19:

🧵 We’re seeing reports of “911 outages” around the state.

All reports are that calls have still been going through but not all of the information was showing up on the telecommunicators screen.

As the first point of contact for emergencies, 911 specialists provide an invaluable service to the public and help keep our first responders informed and prepared.

They’re true life-savers, and I cannot thank them enough for their dedication to leaving no one behind.

📞 Every call starts with a voice behind the line.

This week, we’re recognizing the men and women behind the call — CAL FIRE's Communications Operators.

Thank you to the people who answer when California calls. Happy National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week.

For months, our 911 teams have worked around the clock responding to crises. In our city’s most terrifying moments, they’re the first voice people hear.

They meet every call with poise and compassion. I’m proud to proclaim it National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week.

Telecommunicators at #BostonEMS work tirelessly, managing more than 380 medical emergencies every day — from dispatching and 911 call-taking to handling CMED. (2/3)

This week we honor these first first responders for National Telecommunicators Week.

Dispatchers read these posts too! If one has ever been there for you, feel free to share it below. :)

My late stepdaughter would tell me about the calls she’d receive every day as a 911 operator.

My PROTECT 911 Act supports our emergency operators so they can do their lifesaving work.

During National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week, my gratitude goes out to all our 911 operators.

We need to bring stability to the rest of our public safety system, and this amendment does that by committing the City to fund part of CHAT, the Office of Violence Prevention and 911 telecommunicators on an ongoing basis.

This week is National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week. Before I was in Congress, I spent 17 years as a 911 dispatcher. I know the weight of that headset and the adrenaline of being the voice on the other end. To our dispatchers: thank you for your service and for always answering the call.

Our Minneapolis 911 staff remain composed under pressure to save lives. During National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week, we thank those who keep Minneapolis safe with every 911 call they get. Take a behind-the-scenes look at what it's like being a 911 call taker.
