President Donald Trump signed a bill on July 29 that authorizes the extension of a compensation fund for first responders who risked their lives during the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
“Today, we come together as one nation to support our September 11 heroes, to care for their families, and to renew our eternal vow—never ever forget,” President Trump said in the Rose Garden before signing the bipartisan bill, dubbed the “Never Forget the Heroes Act,“ which passed the Senate on July 23 in a 97–2 vote.
