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. Wednesday, March 20, 2002 12:49 AM September 11th Victims Fund To Whom It May Concern, Although I think it is great that there is a fund to help families of the victims of September 11th, I find it disgusting and immoral that you are excluding the partners of those victims who were gay. How can you exclude certain parties just because of their sexual orientation? That goes against the claims that this disaster has brought the nation together. It's all very Orwellian, and it scares me. Please don't do this. Please don't exclude anyone. It's time for us to really come together as a nation, and excluding certain people from this fund is very un-American and extremely discriminatory, and it only fuels hatred. Thank you for taking the time to read this. Below is some copy from the email I received that informed me about this injustice.
