New York Democratic Senators Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand criticized President Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for allegedly trying to dismantle the World Trade Center Health Program (WTCHP) after the abrupt firing of 16 staff members. Schumer expressed concerns that these actions jeopardize the healthcare of more than 137,000 responders to the 9/11 attacks. The WTCHP, designed to provide medical treatment and research, faces significant setbacks due to staff cuts, leading to delays in cancer treatment for survivors. Advocacy groups and affected families are deeply troubled by these developments.
Donald Trump and [his Health and Human Services Secretary] RFK revealed their true intentions Friday night when they fired another 16 [workers]. ... They seem to do these things late at night on weekends so nobody would know.
This political chaos is jeopardizing the healthcare of heroes.
People who are in the middle of being treated for serious cancers are not getting the treatment anymore.
We are being lied to constantly. My 23-year-old has worn a heart monitor for the past two weeks. I don't have time for people to lie to me anymore.
