The Trump administration has been charged with claims of siphoning almost $4m from a program that is serving to New York firefighters and medics suffering from 9\/11 related casualties.<\/p>\n
Reports state the treasury department halted payments to the program around four years ago and even today the cause remains unknown.<\/p>\n
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health<\/a> performed the task of sanctioning all the payments to the plan but during these events, the treasury started keeping money with itself.<\/p>\n According to the program\u2019s director and FDNY\u2019s chief medical officer, Dr. David Prezant that nor a legal statement has been issued neither authorities have been apprised as to why all the payments have stopped to the program.<\/p>\n Half a million dollars went missing during the years 2016-2017 and later these figures went up to six lakh and thirty million in the year 2018. While in august 2020 a hefty amount of $1.44 million went missing.<\/p>\n Authorities are already facing crucial times financially due to COVID 19 and since there is no aid coming for the program unfortunately sick workers and firefighters are not being medically treated the way they should be.<\/p>\n\n
