The Republican vying for the congressional seat left vacant by former Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-NY) says that a 9/11 health care law shouldn’t cover workers who volunteered at Ground Zero.
Bob Turner told The New York Daily News Editorial Board Tuesday that the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act of 2010 was “a little too broad.”
“My call would be to protect police, fire, emergency workers, construction workers, etc.,” he explained.
“If someone said, ‘I volunteered’ or walked through there, it’s just not the type.”
Turner added that while he would have voted for the bill had he been in Congress at the time, he doesn’t believe it’s pefect.
