WASHINGTON, DC (January 5, 2011) – U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand appeared on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart Tuesday night, where she thanked Jon Stewart for his efforts to raise awareness and help pass the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act.
Before the show, Senator Gillibrand presented Stewart with an American flag that flew over the U.S. Capitol on December 22, 2010, the day the 9/11 health bill passed, and a jacket from the FealGood Foundation, a leading advocacy group for 9/11 first responders.

WATCH Senator Gillibrand on the Daily Show discuss the passage of health care for 9/11 heroes, the repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,” along with the first overhaul of America’s food safety laws in nearly a century, banning drop-side cribs to save infant lives, and more.
