Protecting the People Who Protect Pennsylvania
Op-ed by Senator Amanda M. Cappelletti
There’s a common perception that first responders – police officers, firefighters, emergency medical technicians (EMTs), and veterans are tough.

In many instances these generalizations can be true, but I think they rarely tell the whole story.
