Professional Firefighters of Clackamas County
International Association of Firefighters (IAFF) - Local 1159
The Professional Firefighters Association of Clackamas County is an International Association of Fire Fighters AFL-CIO affiliate Local. Local 1159 represents over 335 firefighters and paramedics from Canby Fire District #62, Clackamas Fire District #1, Estacada Fire District #69, Gladstone Fire Department, Lake Oswego Fire Department, Molalla Fire District #73 and Sandy Fire District #72. Our mission is to ensure that all members are treated fairly and equally focusing on wages, hours, working conditions, retirement securities and safety. It is our goal to improve the standard of living for our members, families and communities we serve.
LAW ENFORCEMENT. FIRE. EMS. THE PEOPLE WHO KNOW PUBLIC SAFETY TRUST SHERIFF RHODES.
I am incredibly honored to announce the support of three major organizations representing the men and women on the front lines of public safety in Clackamas County:
🚔 Clackamas County Peace Officers Association
🚒 Professional Firefighters of Clackamas County, IAFF Local 1159
🚑 Teamsters Joint Council No. 37
Law enforcement, firefighters, paramedics and EMS professionals work side by side every day responding to emergencies and keeping our communities safe. We depend on one another, and strong relationships among our public safety partners matter.
That is why having the support of the people who know this work firsthand means so much to me.
The endorsement of the Clackamas County Peace Officers Association is especially meaningful. These are the men and women of the Sheriff’s Office who know my leadership, work alongside me, and will be directly impacted by the decisions I make as Sheriff.
To have their overwhelming support — alongside the support of firefighters and EMS professionals who work with our deputies in communities across Clackamas County — is incredibly humbling.
To all three organizations: thank you for your confidence in me. I will work every day to earn it.

In 1997, the Milwaukie Fire Department merged with Clackamas Fire District, closing one chapter of local fire service history while helping build the foundation for what we know today.
Last week, the original members of the Milwaukie Fire Department came back together for a reunion at their old firehouse in downtown Milwaukie — a building that now has a new life as pFriem Family Brewers
For these firefighters, the old station represents more than a building. It’s a place where they worked together, shared meals, answered calls, served their community, and built friendships that have lasted nearly three decades after the merger.
Local 1159 is proud to recognize and thank these firefighters who served the Milwaukie community and helped pave the way for the generations of firefighters who followed.
The patches, apparatus, and names on the stations may change over the years, but the brotherhood and commitment to serving our communities continue.
Thank you to the original members of the Milwaukie Fire Department for your service, your legacy, and for paving the way for today’s Local 1159 members.

We share our condolences to the Theander family and AMR Multnomah and Clackamas Counties. Cole was a passionate paramedic who cared deeply about his patients and served his community for generations. Rest easy Cole.Cole Theander passed away yesterday afternoon surrounded by family and loved ones. Cole worked for AMR for 34 years and was a significant part of the AMR NW family. With a career that long, he touched many lives at AMR and the patients he cared for throughout our EMS community. We will remember and honor him.

Congratulations to member Michael Callaway from Lake Oswego Fire Department on completing his paramedic program. Lake Oswego Fire Department supports EMT new hires in obtaining their paramedic license through the Local’s collective bargaining agreement with the city. It is a great opportunity when starting a new career in the fire service.
