New York City faces a lawsuit over withheld records related to Ground Zero air quality post-9/11.

New York City is trying to dismiss a lawsuit from 9/11 survivors and families seeking air quality studies from Ground Zero. The city claims it lacks relevant records and calls the request a "fishing expedition," but the petitioners argue the city has the documents and is delaying release by seeking financial and legal protections. A City Council bill aims to obtain more information on the city's knowledge of toxic air conditions post-9/11.
