The New York City Council has allocated $1 million in its fiscal year 2027 budget to enable students to visit the 9/11 Memorial & Museum. Announced by Council Speaker Julie Menin outside the museum on Thursday, the funding will provide free guided, self-guided, and virtual field trips for NYC students, particularly focusing on eighth-grade classes, and expand educational programming. The initiative aims to ensure that a new generation understands the events of September 11, 2001, as nearly one-third of Americans were born after the attacks or are too young to remember them. Menin stated, "it is more important than ever that a new generation of New Yorkers understands what happened that day and carries forward the stories of those we lost." Paramedic Natan Mandelbaum commented, "'Never forget' isn't just a statement. It requires action."
