Pass the James Zadroga 9/11 Health Bill
This past week 41 republican senators voted to block the passage of the James Zadroga 9/11 Health Bill which would of provided health care to the Heroes of 9/11. The first responders who saved an untold number of lives are now paying for their self sacrifice in the form of illness and death. Call, write, or email these representatives and urge them to change course.
We urge you to reconsider your nay vote on H.R.847: James Zadroga 9/11 health and Compensation Act of 2010. $7.4 Billion is a small price to pay for the care of American Heroes who saved an untold number of lives on the day of Americas worst terror attack.
We plead with you to stop the partisan bickering and vote aye on this important legislation. This bill is neither Democratic or Republican, it is American.
John Boehner said he received a "mandate" from the American people. We can assure you that this mandate did not include the denial of critical health care coverage for the first responders who rushed into the burning twin towers on September 11, 2001.
Passing H.R.847: James Zadroga 9/11 health and Compensation Act of 2010 is the moral, humane, and most of all right thing to do.
