The 9/11 Party Takes Back Aid Money

Republican Party- Summer 2004 (Republican convention in NYC): "9/11! 9/11! 9/11! 9/11!"

Republican Party- Now: "Give us back that money, NY!"

'Promise Broken': N.Y. to Lose 9/11 Aid

Congressional budget negotiators have decided to take back $125 million in Sept. 11 aid from New York, which had fought to keep the money to treat sick and injured ground zero workers, lawmakers said Tuesday.

New York officials had sought for months to hold onto the funding, originally meant to cover increased worker compensation costs stemming from the 2001 terror attacks.

But a massive labor and health spending bill moving fitfully through House-Senate negotiations would take back that funding, lawmakers said.


Thanks for whoring out our tragedy, Republicans! Enjoy having the money back!!

New Orleans, only a few more years before they take your money back!
