SAGINAW, MI – U.S. Senator Gary Peters (MI), Chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, toured Saginaw Fire Station 1 today to discuss the need to pass his bipartisan legislation to extend federal grant programs that are set to expire. During the visit, Peters highlighted how the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER) grant program, the Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG) program, and the United States Fire Administration (USFA) provide critical federal resources to Michigan’s fire departments, like Saginaw’s.
