Rep. Johnson Applauds Senate Passage of September 11th Victim Compensation Bill
Washington, D.C. – Today U.S. Representative Dusty Johnson (R-S.D.) issued a statement following the U.S. Senate passage of the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund Act. As a cosponsor of the legislation, Rep. Johnson recently voted in support of the bill when it passed out of the U.S. House of Representatives. Rep. Johnson was a member of the whip team that secured votes for passage in the House
“Our 9/11 first responders deserve certainty, and it’s about time Congress gave it to them,” said Johnson. “I was proud to cosponsor the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund in the House, and now that it has passed the Senate, I look forward to seeing it swiftly signed into law by the president. Once implemented, this bill will help provide care to those 9/11 heroes for decades to come.”
The September 11th Victim Compensation Fund will be renamed the Never Forget the Heroes: James Zadroga, Ray Pfeifer, and Luis Alvarez Permanent Reauthorization of the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund Act. This legislation will be extended through 2090 to cover future illnesses of responders and survivors.
Hey folks, Rand Paul speaks truth to lies. So ask Dusty why he would rather have a selfie taken with leftest John Stewart rather than conservative Rand Paul……. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6tuPzt1G0g
Rand Paul is the idiot who claims he can’t vote for the 9/11 bill because it isn’t funded, except he’ll vote for a budget that shows a massive deficit. He’s the definition of a hypocrite.
It’s no wonder why these ding bats have increased the debt by 2 trillion. The bill has been amended thanks to people like Senator Lee and Senator Paul. How stupid to vote on a bill to fund to 2092. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnEZIMwgOUY
