Joseph Zadroga weeps while talking about his son, NYPD Detective James Zadroga, during a rally for 9/11 first responders on the West Lawn of the US Captiol February 26, 2008 in Washington, DC. According to his father, James Zadroga spent about 500 hours working at Ground Zero after the 9/11 attacks and died in 2005 from severe lung damage caused by his exposure to the World Trade Center site. About 30 first responders and Ground Zero workers gathered on Captiol Hill to petition members of Congress to oppose a Bush Administration proposal to cut their funding for medical and other support.
