WASHINGTON — Sen. Marco Rubio has signed on to back reauthorizing the Zadroga Act…
Rubio signed onto the Senate bill to permanently and fully reauthorize the programs that provide healthcare and money for 9/11 first responders and others suffering from major health problems due to the attacks, his team confirmed to the Daily News Tuesday evening.

“Congress must keep faith with the heroes and victims of 9/11, while also making sure our federal government is living within its means and protecting taxpayers. As we continue working on this issue, I hope we can improve this legislation or reach an agreement that meets both these goals.”

“I continue to believe that we should prioritize our 9/11 first responders’ needs above other things that the federal government is spending money on – and in many cases, wasting money on.
