Firefighters Informative Speech
I’m not sure if most of you know, but firefighters are among the lowest paid safety personnel in the United States.
Tonight I am going to briefly explain why firefighters pay should increase not only because of the effort they put into being the best but the effort they put in to being ready for the worst.

Through all of their courageous efforts to protect and serve the public, they only make at most $60,000 a year Just think the fire fighters on 9/11 had a yearly salary that was at most $60,000. That’s less than 30 dollars an hour for putting their life at risk to save others. Whenever
