LONG BRANCH — For John Feal, a Senate vote on a bill to fund health care for 9/11 first responders was one more slap in the face.

Feal, who has been a vocal advocate for the James Zadroga 9/11 Health & Compensation Act, came down against Senate Republicans who voted down a procedural vote that would have brought the bill to a vote on Dec. 9.
“We are outraged and we’ve been insulted once again. The fact that the Republican Party put our bill behind another bill and hid behind a procedural vote so they can get another bill moved is just a slap in the face,” he said in an interview last week.

“The United States Senate and the Republican Party need to man-up on their patriotism and they need to do what is morally right,” he added. “They owe this to us because it is the last slap in the face that we take.”
