Legislative Aide, Michael Paschall and Representative Eric Feige,

Hi, my name is Justin Major and I am a volunteer firefighter in Valdez.  When I first 
heard of this bill, I thought to myself, “that would be nice”.  I have never contacted any 
of my representatives before, so I figured I would start now.  I am in full support of this 
bill, as Valdez has one of the highest property taxes in the state.  It has a huge incentive 
for future firefighters to protect our community and all the communities statewide.  This 
bill would do all sorts of wonders for our communities statewide because who would not 
want a tax break on the first $200,000 of their home value?

We are spreading the word here in Valdez, and I have seen numerous emails going 
statewide thru the Alaska Division of Fire and Life Safety email distribution lists.  
Hopefully I’m not the first email you have received.

Thanks for supporting those who support you!!

Justin Major
