On the ninth anniversary of the World Trade Center attack, the House has agreed to try once again to pass legislation that would provide the needed medical care for those people who rushed in to help.
H.R. 847 -- 9/11 Health and Compensation Act of 2010 failed when 155 Republicans and 4 Democrats voted against the bill. It needed a two-thirds vote because the Democratic Leadership didn't want it to get bogged down with unrelated amendments. Our Representative Tom McClintock voted against the bill.
