Such an emotional day though

Don't forget, if you're American, our congress is unsupportive of 9/11 first responders. While we should remember one of the U.S.'s worst attacks and all the lives that were lost, it's just as important that we protect the people that ran towards the collapsing towers to save as many lives as possible and today live with the consequences. Here's a list of everyone in congress that voted against the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act in 2015:

When these people say they love our country, they are lying. When they say they support first responders, they are lying. It's a facade. Vote against all of these people.

Some are already out, this list is from 2015 of course, but still.

Not meaning to make it political or anything, just putting it out there 'cause there's lives at stake, even 15 years after the attacks 

As the child of a firefighter, (not in NYC) thank you for that statement. I will always be proud of my father for having a job that put others before himself. He was a man to be admired, for many reasons! 

 

Look at that list of cowards! All Republicans I see.  Dare I say...deplorables?

An awful day. so awful

It was an awful day. I lived through it and let me tell you, I'd give anything to be able to forget the **** I saw that day. When I close my eyes at night, I can still hear the sound of bodies hitting the concrete of the people who chose to jump instead of burn to death. My friends and I physically watched the towers fall. It's scary to think that an ordinary school day could turn into a nightmare

Hey! There were two Democrats!

Spoiler

Did you notice that Pence is one of 'em too? I wonder why they call Obama anti-police (etc) when he addresses the issue of police brutality but the Republican candidate for VP literally voted against 9/11 first responders

Deplorable indeed

But that's a discussion for a different day

A personal thank you to your dad as well. I have a great deal of respect for people who put their lives on the line like that.

When my oldest sister came to pick me up from school, I don't think I've ever clung to someone so hard in my life
