美国众议员卡罗琳·马洛尼（Carolyn Maloney），杰罗尔德·纳德勒（Jerrold Nadler）和彼得·金（Peter King）詹姆斯·扎德罗加（James Zadroga）9/11健康与赔偿法，发布了以下关于今天宣布的修订和解协议的陈述地面零：
The heroes and heroines of 9/11 deserve the maximum settlement possible and this is a step in the right direction, said Rep. Maloney. I applaud Judge Hellerstein and the attorneys on both sides for going back to the bargaining table to offer more help to those who lost their health because of the attacks on America. However, the 11,000 plaintiffs in this case are only a fraction of the more than 20,000 Americans who have been identified by the federal government as having serious 9/11-related illnesses and injuries. In addition, we dont yet know the full extent of the health problems that will emerge as a result of the attacks, and people are still getting sick. We need to pass the Zadroga Act this year to give all 9/11 responders and survivors of the attacks proper health care and compensation for their economic losses.
我已经工作多年,首先防止人们from getting sick from 9/11, and then to ensure that the sick and injured are properly cared for and compensated to the maximum extent possible. So, I welcome the news today of a new proposed settlement designed to bring millions more to the heroes and victims of 9/11, said Rep. Nadler. Settlement of these claims is long overdue but, unfortunately, it is not the end of the story. The settlement depends on continued federal funding of health care for the first responders and survivors of the 9/11 attacks. The best way to ensure that funding continues is by passing the 9/11 Health and Compensation Act, which recently passed out of the House Energy and Commerce Committee and is currently awaiting consideration on the House floor. The legislation is designed to help many more people than are currently involved in the pending lawsuits addressed by the proposed settlement, and I have been assured by the Citys lawyers that they will continue to push for its passage as well.
当我为所有聚会提供这一积极发展的同时，我仍然完全致力于与Maloney和Nadler的代表合作。詹姆斯·扎德罗加（James Zadroga）9/11健康与赔偿法众议员金说，（H.R. 847）将充分满足我们的第一响应者和幸存者的需求。
上个月，众议院的能源和商业小组对Zadroga Act的规定提供了两党的支持，以扩大和制定永久的现有联邦计划，以提供有关世界贸易中心塔楼崩溃的毒素的医疗监测，并接受9//的治疗11疾病和伤害。去年7月，众议院司法委员会批准了两党的支持，即重新开放联邦受害者薪酬基金的法案规定。马洛尼（Maloney）和纳德勒（Nadler）希望本月晚些时候全部对Zadroga法案进行投票。
