As New York City continues to recover from the full impact COVID-19 had on the city, the de Blasio administration is considering laying off "hundreds" of FDNY Emergency Medical Services workers, a source familiar with the possibility told ABC News.
Mayor Bill de Blasio has warned 22,000 city workers could be laid off because of a projected $9 billion shortfall.
"Yesterday, we were praised as heroes, essential workers saving lives. Today, the city government treats us like zeros," said Oren Barzilay, president of FDMY EMS Local 2507. "New Yorkers who lived through this deadly pandemic know otherwise."
Nine EMS workers died of coronavirus since the start of the pandemic.
Barzilay said as many as 400 of his members are facing potential layoffs and he warned of delayed responses to emergencies.
