American VoicesPoliticshealthcare ISSUE 46•21 May 27, 2010

Saying it might help people who were undeserving, Republican congressmen spoke out against a proposed health care program for rescue workers who responded to the 9/11 terrorist attacks. What do you think?

  • “Well, of course. If you extend health benefits to 9/11 heroes, next you'll be providing free lifetime benefits to veterans." ”

  • “That's why I always get a monetary guarantee in writing up front before I rush to save anyone's life.”

    Jason Headly –
    Mechanic

  • “I think the fact that Republicans have worn "FDNY" T-shirts, buttons, and hats for almost 10 years now is support enough for the well-being of rescuers."”
