New York State AFL-CIO President Mario Cilento joined 9/11 responders and survivors and members of Congress in Washington DC on February 25th to unveil the Never Forget the Heroes: Permanent Authorization of the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund.
Ensuring that all 9/11 first responders and survivors who have been injured by the toxins at the crash sites get their full compensation is a priority of organized labor.
In this episode, we hear from former NYC firefighter Rob Serra, who like so many others, suffers from a long list of illnesses as a result of responding to ground zero.
