Recognizing New Jersey's first responders, including its law enforcement officers, firefighters, and emergency medical personnel, who responded to the September 11, 2001, attacks at the World Trade Center and who carried out the rescue, recovery, and medical relief efforts in the days and months that followed.

This resolution recognizes New Jersey's first responders, such as law enforcement officers, firefighters, and emergency medical personnel, for their response to the September 11, 2001, attacks at the World Trade Center. It highlights their rescue, recovery, and medical relief efforts, including the massive waterborne evacuation and the work of New Jersey Task Force 1. The text notes that New Jersey lost more residents on 9/11 than any state except New York, and that many first responders have suffered and died from 9/11-related illnesses. The House of Representatives resolves to recognize these first responders, honor their service and sacrifice, and remember those who have died. Finally, it reaffirms the Federal commitment to the World Trade Center Health Program and the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund.
