Common Ground: Honoring Our Fallen Heroes
Summary
Many first responders who dedicate their lives to serving others often end up paying severe consequences, with firefighters having a 9% greater risk of being diagnosed with cancer and a 14% higher risk of dying from the disease than the general population. When these brave Americans are putting their lives in danger to protect others, they should feel confident their lives and families are valued.
Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) and Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND) discuss how they're setting out to do just that through the Honoring Our Fallen Heroes Act, a piece of bipartisan legislation aiming to secure additional federal funding for the families of first responders who have died or suffered permanent disability from service-related cancers.
