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, November 06, 2001 3:07 PM Victim's Compensation To Whom It May Concern: First I would recommend that you read the New York Times' "Portraits of Grief" section daily. It puts a face on each and every victim of this horrendous attack. Then I would ask you to reflect on the innocent children that have been affected for the rest of their lives. And, here is my two cents - the government should come up with a flat figure (for example, $250,000 per person - please feel free to go higher). If a family has three remaining members they would receive $750,000. In addition, the charitable organizations should compensate each family and the government should mind it's own business when it comes to these compensations. The money the charitable organizations have received was sent in by the world public specifically for the families affected. They should distribute EVERY PENNY!! The businesses affected should be compensated by the city, state and federal governments. They should not be compensated by the charitable donations. Lastly, these compensation decisions should be made quickly. The families have suffered enough - they should not have to worry how they are going to make their rent/mortgage payments. Please show the world what a compassionate nation we can truly be.
