It was for those tens of thousands of brave selfless and innocent responders and survivors that Congress came together in 2010, after years of struggles and negotiations, to pass the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act and to fulfill our moral obligation, as Lincoln said, to care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan.
Very soon, more people will have died from 9/11-related illnesses than were murdered on that day.
