Madam President. today I want to recognize the accomplishments of Ms. Debra Brown Steinberg. Last year. Ms. Steinberg received the Ellis Island Medal of Honor from the National Ethnic Coalition of Organizations for her services in representing the families of noncitizen February 13. 2008 CONGRI victims of the September 11. 2001. terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center. With this award. she joins past notable recipients such as former Presidents Gerald Ford. George H.W. Bush. and Bill Clinton. Ms. Steinberg has worked tirelessly to help the families of 9/11 victims. She played a leading role in the creation of the New York Lawyers for the Public Interest 9/11 Project shortly after the attacks.
