Assistance to 9/11 Victims Through The Never Forget the Heroes Act

The one-year anniversary of The Never Forget the Heroes Act reminds us of the sacrifices that thousands of families and first responders made on September 11th, 2001. The law permanently funds the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund (VCF) which was due to run out of funding in December. With funding now restored, over $6.8 billion in compensation has been awarded to victims and their families in the past year.
