Zadroga 9-11 Act to Cover Cancers

In a groundbreaking ruling today, Dr. John Howard and NIOSH have proposed to cover multiple cancers for 9-11 responders and survivors under the James Zadroga Act.

See the actual proposed Zadroga Act Cancer rule here. 

See a Summary of which cancers will be covered under the Zadroga Act here.

I have long advocated for this coverage and testified before Dr. Howard at public hearings urging this exact outcome.  Many others did the same and more.  Today is a great victory for all the 9-11 responders and survivors fighting cancer today.  Please remember those who have already passed in your prayers.
