A candidate for the Coupeville School Board falsely claims on his personal Facebook page to be a firefighter for Central Whidbey Fire and Rescue.
Paul Rempa, who is running against Nancy Conard for Position 2, lists the claim under “details about Paul.”
This false claim has remained on his Facebook page since at least 2019, when he was publicly questioned about it.
A screenshot from early this afternoon shows Rempa still claiming first responder status he doesn’t deserve.
Command at Central Whidbey Fire and Rescue, when asked in 2019, stated Rempa had not been a volunteer for many years by that point.
Rempa, a first-time school board candidate in Coupeville, is currently a Precinct Committee Officer and Precinct Captain for the Island County Republicans.
In the past, Rempa was a volunteer with South Whidbey Fire/EMS, and served in the Coast Guard, though neither of those valid first responder jobs are noted on his Facebook page.
Instead, the job and status which is not his to claim remains the position which has sat prominently, for years, on his social media.
Rempa did not respond to an interview request.
