Title A name given to the resource Department of Justice Emails Description An account of the resource The Department of Justice received more than 11,000 e-mails in response to the agency's public solicitation for comments upon its plans to distribute the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund of 2001 established by Congress to benefit the victims of September 11 and their families. These e-mails have been organized here by date. September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. Tuesday, January 22, 2002 5:56 PM victim compensation fund I'm sorry, I can't see why the US government is setting a precendent like this - why are we paying the families of these tragic victims again? I sent money to the Red Cross, so I understand that the families need help in coping with this horrible situation. But for the government to step in and indemnify life like this seems very dangerous. Who do I call if my husband is killed in an automobile accident? What is the difference between his sudden demise and the death of 2889 people at the WTC? I mean, is the government admitting some kind of wrongdoing by providing funding for these people? And to the people who are crying that it isn't enough to compensate for the loss of Tommy or daddy or whoever - they are right. There will never be enough money minted to compensate for that loss. Thank you for the opportunity to say my piece.
