Constituent Services

A constituent who had been working on the same block as the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001 contacted our office after being diagnosed with an additional cancer caused by exposure to toxic chemicals. Although they had previously received compensation for their injuries, this new diagnosis was not initially covered. 

After our office intervened, their case was reopened to include the new diagnosis. As a result, they received additional compensation and their condition was officially recognized, ensuring access to further treatment and support.
