New Laws Honor 911 Responders | Dayton News

Governor Hochul just signed three landmark bills to ensure victims, first responders, and families of 9/11 still get the benefits they deserve—no matter how long it takes. These laws extend filing deadlines for workers’ comp and retirement claims up to September 11, 2030, giving those who served at Ground Zero, in the landfill, or at morgues time to seek justice—even if symptoms appear decades later. Special provisions also give New York’s National Guard members and their families four extra years to file death and disability claims, while expanding eligibility windows for retirement benefits up to 35 years post-retirement. This isn’t just policy—it’s a solemn promise: New York remembers, honors, and stands by those who stood for them.
