Federal Worker Fired by DOGE: Firefighters Will Not Get a Training on How to Deal with Lithium Battery Fires & EVs

EXCERPT:

PETTIT: “Before I left, we were working on a number of updates to programs dealing with everything from how to deal with lithium-ion battery fires to dealing with electric vehicles, all of these new technologies that are coming out that firefighters and first responders need to know how to deal with, we're the institution they come to to get that training, and I'm really afraid that we're not going to be able to offer them what they need to keep Americans safe.”
