The correct answer is <em>"to pressure Congress to pass a new law"</em>.

Construction workers and rescue personnel who were present during the events of September 11th issued a plea to Congress to pass new legislation that would provide medical aid to them as a result for the affectations to their health that occurred due to their activities during 9/11. They argued that many of their colleagues were being diagnosed with Mesothelioma, which is a type of cancer that is produced by breathing toxic air. The plea states that this is a product of the exposure of these workers during the rescue efforts on the day of the attack.

What was the Tea Act of 1773?
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

The Tea Act of 1773 was one of several measures imposed on the American colonists by the heavily indebted British government in the decade leading up to the American Revolutionary War (1775-83). The act’s main purpose was not to raise revenue from the colonies but to bail out the floundering East India Company, a key actor in the British economy. The British government granted the company a monopoly on the importation and sale of tea in the colonies. The colonists had never accepted the constitutionality of the duty on tea, and the Tea Act rekindled their opposition to it.
