For over a decade, World Trade Center Health Program has been forced to shoulder the burden of debts owed by the NYC government. Since this issue was brought to my attention, I have been personally engaged in ensuring that New York's Bravest receive everything that they are due from the U.S. government, the firefighters who answered the call of duty in response to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 deserve the nation's total support. I am delighted that( The Centers for Medicaid Services) has wired payments to World Trade Center Health Program refunding the past offsets applied to cover unpaid NYC debts.
