Reps. Anthony Weiner and Jerrold Nadler have introduced legislation that would award up to $50 million of the bounty approved by Congress to help fund organizations that provide health care, psychological care and other resources to those most directly affected in the September 11, 2001, attacks.

“These programs are ones that desperately need funding that are still everyday dealing with the ramifications of September 11,” Weiner said at a news conference from ground zero.

“Hopefully they will now benefit from this reward money.”
