Jon Stewart Rips Lawmakers for Not Attending 9/11 Victims Fund Hearing

Jon Stewart blasted lawmakers on Tuesday for not showing up for a hearing on the September 11 victims’ fund. The former “Daily Show” host made his comments while addressing the House Judiciary subcommittee hearing on reauthorizing the September 11 Victim Compensation Fund. Sounding emotional at times during his remarks, Stewart told the congress members…”You should be ashamed of yourselves”. Stewart has frequently visited Capitol Hill to urge lawmakers to ensure the VCF remains fully funded. The VCF had said earlier this year it was running out of money.
