This bears repeating on the 9/11 Decennial:
Senate GOP blocks 9/11 first responders health plan bill - The Hill's Healthwatch

This pisses me off to no end!!! (see my siggie)
What say you?
Senate GOP blocks 9/11 first responders health plan bill - The Hill's Healthwatch
Of course the Repubs wouldn't support it, it would force big biz to sacrifice/contribute.A vote to quash the filibuster failed by a vote of 57 to 42, three votes short of the necessary threshold. As a result, the proposal is unlikely to pass this year.
The bill would provide funding for a health program to treat first responders, construction and cleanup workers and residents who inhaled toxic particles after the collapse of the World Trade Center towers.
The $7.4 billion cost of the legislation over 10 years is paid for by a provision that would prevent foreign multinational corporations from using tax havens to avoid taxes on U.S. income.
