President Obama today signed the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act of 2010 while vacationing in Hawaii.
For many 9/11 victims and their families, it was a long and painful road to this most deserving day. Some did not make it - and we mourn them and their sacrifice.
However, many 9/11 first responders, survivors, volunteers, construction workers and clean-up workers will now get the medical treatment and compensation they need so badly due to the Zadroga 9/11 Act - and for this we are all grateful.
Thanks to all the the unstoppable supporters of the Zadroga bill. Thanks to James Zadroga and his family - and all heroes like him.
