Join Us on  Nov. 18th for a Rally
at the U.S. Capitol for 9/11 Health  Care

-FealGood Foundation,  NYC Firefighter Brotherhood Foundation, & A
Coalition of September  11 Heroes Joined By Elected Officials to Urge Passage of
9/11 Health  Bill-
On November 18th, the FealGood  Foundation,the NYC Firefighter Brotherhood
Foundation & a coalition of  September 11 heroes,along with our elected
officials from across the  nation will hold a rally at the U.S. Capitol in
Washington, D.C. to urge  Congressional leaders to bring the _James Zadroga 9/11  
Health and Compensation Act of 2009_
(http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c111:H.R.847:)  (H.R. 847 and S. 1334) to the floors of  the House and
Senate for a vote this year.  This bill will provide  comprehensive health care
and compensation for thousands of ailing 9/11  heroes.  
Caring for Americans with 9/11-related  illnesses is not just a New  York
issue.  According to the  federally-funded World Trade Center Health
Registry, people from all 50 states  and 431 of 435 Congressional districts
nationwide were in lower Manhattan on or after 9/11 and now have serious  concerns
about their health.  Unfortunately, the federal response to this  health
emergency has been inadequate and disappointing because of significant  funding
delays, and a lack of organization and attention to the 9/11 health  crisis
by the previous administration’s health  agencies.
Last month, the nation observed the eighth  anniversary of the 9/11
attacks.  On this year’s anniversary and the seven  that preceded it, we heard many
heartfelt and touching tributes to the heroism  of the men and women who
rushed to Ground Zero to help save the lives of  others.  But this year, we
need more than just speeches and tributes – we  need concrete action by
Congress to give the heroes and heroines of 9/11 the  health care and compensation
they need and deserve.  It is truly the least  this great nation can do.
Please join us on November  18th!
