Jon Stewart parle de pourquoi il continue d'aider les premiers intervenants
đ«đ· Français
Jon Stewart says he never planned to help first responders and their families.
It just happened.
The host of âThe Daily Showâ said he wanted to feel useful.
He wanted to help people who help others.
He said these people are not superheroes.
They are just men and women who chose to help others in bad times.
Stewart supported 9/11 first responders.
This led to angry lobbying and a talk to Congress in 2019.
He pushed to keep the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund from running out of money.
He also worked to close a loophole in the PACT Act.
That loophole left U.S. troops exposed to radiation in the Afghanistan War.
They had no medical coverage.
On Friday, Stewart said he will host the First Responders Childrenâs Foundationâs Roll Call of Heroes ceremony again.
The event will be in New Yorkâs Times Square on Oct. 28.
It marks National First Responders Day.
Stewart said it is nice to meet the people being honored.
He also likes meeting young people who are active in their communities.
Foundation President and CEO Jillian Crane said the nonprofit is very happy Stewart will host again.
She said he speaks up for first responders.
This is especially true for those with 9/11-related illnesses.
She said this makes him the perfect host.
She said the group is the only national nonprofit for the children of first responders.
