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, December 05, 2001 5:33 PM September 11 Victim Compensation to Unmarried Couples As President Bush is finalizing his decision regarding the rules for distributing the September 11th victims' fund, I would like to add my voice to those who believe that all dependent survivors should be compensated, not just those with a marriage certificate. While some argue that the sanctity of marriage can only be protected by providing relief money to the partners and children of victims who have a marriage license, obviously the true spirit of giving financial relief to those in need due to the September 11th tragedy can only be achieved by examining ALL documentation and providing compensation to ALL persons and/or children who had financial dependence upon the September 11th victims. The ability of a man and a woman to obtain holy, matrimonial union will in no way be diminished by the government acknowledging and providing for all partners and children of all of the September 11th victims, despite the inflammatory, rhetorical arguments of some religious leaders. Thank you for listening and doing the right thing.
