Dear 9/11 Responders and Family Members,
A critical event is coming up in the next few weeks and we are asking YOU to participate:
What: Emergency Rally for 9/11 Health
When: TUESDAY February 26, 2008
Where: The United States Capitol, Washington, DC
Who: Organized by the FealGood Foundation & 9/11 Health Now
The time is NOW. In the six years since September 11th, the 9/11 Community has become increasingly desperate. More people have fallen sick, friends and loved ones have died, entire families have been torn apart by the 9/11 Health Crisis, which is only worsening as time goes on. Consider the following recent developments:
The government just cut 9/11Health Care funding by 77%. A paltry $25 million was designated for fiscal year 2009, down from $108 million in 2008. This means every program in existence (including Mt. Sinai) will be operating on a severely reduced budget.
This past December 2007, Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Michael Leavitt canceled plans for the World Trade Center Business Process Center. This center was designed to provide treatment for the 10,000-plus First Responders who reside outside the New York metropolitan area, many of whom are seriously ill.
The 9/11 Health & Compensation Act (aka the James Zadroga bill) has still not been passed. This hugely important piece of legislation that would help all 9/11 families has been ignored within Congress up until now--it is time to speak up to to get it passed!
The above developments are too important to let slide. We need everyone to show up and speak up, so that relief will come to the 9/11 Community at last. We CAN change the face of 9/11 Health--But we need YOUR HELP to do it:
We need a LARGE GROUP of 9/11 Families to make the trip. (Transportation and accommodation are provided at no charge). We need Responders, wives, husbands, kids--ANY 9/11 family member who wants to make a difference!
We are shooting for minimum 2 bus-loads.... The more people who show up, the more presence we will have on Capitol Hill...
More details and an itinerary will follow soon, but we are putting the word out now, in order for people to organize. In brief:
Departure (from the NY/LI/NJ area): MONDAY February 25th
Overnight stay
TUESDAY February 26th: 11am - 2pm: Rally for 9/11 Health: Speeches, Media, Demonstrations
2pm onwards: Press Conference, Congressional Appointments
Return: TUESDAY February 26th (evening)
Many thanks for considering this all-important mission... Please respond as soon as possible to one of the following parties, in order that we may finalize trip details:
