Cites her longstanding commitment to working families, transparency and accountability
(BOSTON) – The Professional Fire Fighters of Massachusetts has formally endorsed Diana DiZoglio for State Auditor. The PFFM represents over 12,000 members and 223 cities and towns across Massachusetts. State Senator DiZoglio formally met with the PFFM last week to discuss her years in the legislature, standing up to the political insiders who have taken organized labor’s support for granted for far too long.
"We admire Diana's fighting spirit as a relentless advocate for working families. This will serve all Massachusetts residents well as our next State Auditor as she calls for transparency and accountability across government. Diana has earned our endorsement with her strong record in the legislature, supporting the most critical issues to firefighters and our families." - Rich MacKinnon, PFFM President
“As Auditor, I will ensure that organize labor has their voices heard and a seat at the table. This endorsement is a personal one for me,” said DiZoglio. “The PFFM is like a second family to me. I will proudly stand shoulder to shoulder with them to hold Beacon Hill accountable as we advocate for greater transparency in government.”
