To All Members of Congress
Will you @%*#! do the right thing already? For the love of God, it’s almost nine years since 911 and the 40,000+ First Responders who went to Ground Zero to help now see 70% of themselves sick, dying or dead. The horrific fact is when it’s all said and done, more will have died from the aftermath of the attack versus the attack itself.
If there was any doubt that Americans should “vote the bums out” come November (the actions and lack of actions by both parties on a bill that should simply be a vote yes or no on the bill itself and not one no vote cast), is now completely gone in my book after the absolute charade that took place this past week.
My thoughts and prayers are with my American hero John Feal and all the 911 First Responders and their gathering tomorrow in New York City
Event Sunday, August 1st at Noon
Contact: John Feal, (631) 724-3320
Sunday: 9/11 Responders Will Urge Dysfunctional Congress to Stop Fighting and Pass 9/11 Health Bill
A coalition of World Trade Center responders, including the FealGood Foundation and other 9/11 organizations, will gather near Ground Zero this Sunday to demand that Congress stop the bickering and partisan fighting and finally pass H.R. 847, the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act. Democrats need to get the bill on the House floor under normal rules so it can pass with a simple majority, and Republicans need to promise they won’t use the rules to play political tricks with the vote. People’s lives are at stake!
On Sunday, the group of 9/11 responders will also announce that they plan to travel to DC to be there when Congress gets back from its overlong six-week vacation to remind the politicians that people are sick and dying and Washington needs to take action.
WHO: John Feal, FealGood Foundation, 9/11 organizations representing the FDNY & NYPD, others TBA
WHAT: Press Conference
WHEN: Sunday, August 1st, 12:00pm
WHERE: Ground Zero
Plaza at 7 World Trade Center
