Description: Survivors of 9/11 are suffering and dying as a result of the toxic cloud of dust and smoke that was released when the World Trade Center collapsed on September 11, 2001. Sadly, for many of these brave men and women, recognition for their suffering in the form of compensation and acknowledgment of a link between their diseases and the toxic dust cloud are coming too late – or not at all. - Our Heroes Are Asking – Did I Catch Cancer from the Air?
Description: Years after the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center emergency workers and first responders are being diagnosed with cancer, some rare and fast spreading. Scientists and epidemiologists believe that these cancers were caused by the men and women working at the World Trade Center inhaling the toxic cocktail of dust and smoke released when the Twin Towers collapsed. Only time will tell the true toll of the 9/11 attacks on our American heroes. - Show Them the Money – What is Being Done to Help Our 9/11 Heroes?
Description: The attacks of September 11 have left many of our brave men and women injured or debilitated and in need of medical care and compensation. While a great deal of money has already been paid out to victims and their families, there is still more that can be done. However costs for care are expected to top $240 million a year and our lawmakers stalling on passing legislation to ensure coverage for emergency responders and rescue workers. - NYC Health Crisis - Illnesses that Continue to Haunt 9/11 Survivors
Description: Recent reports reveal that survivors of the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center are at an increased risk for diseases ranging from post-traumatic stress disorder to asthma, cancer, pulmonary fibrosis, and much more. Health experts expect that the true extent of the harm from the toxic dust and smoke released when the towers collapsed will not be known for many years to come. - EPA Efforts to Test and Clean Area Surrounding World Trade Center Criticized
Description: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has been criticized by the GAO for its failure to address the concern of residents and business owners affected by the toxic dust which blanketed the area after 9/11. The GAO concluded that the EPA’s test and clean programs are scientifically and technically flawed, and that the EPA is ill-prepared for future disasters.
