Silly question.

If their illnesses are able to be linked to their paid work during the period immediately after the towers fell, why wouldn't they already be covered under some sort of worker's compensation fund? If they are covered, then why the need for this bill?

Not sure how many folks actually volunteered their time to work after the towers came down. I know there were a number of volunteers, but it would be interesting to know. I would understand the need for the bill if it covered folks without other forms of coverage.

Very thankful for everyone's efforts in the days and months after 9/11. My Dad spent six months in NYC after the towers fell, volunteering with the Red Cross, helping folks find new places to live, etc.
