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. Sunday, November 25, 2001 1:17 PM Compensation To Whom It May Concern: a) We believe there should be no age cap on the earnings potential of the victims of this terrible tragedy. Why should they have a cap if the rest of us are looking at retirement now starting at age 70. b) There should be no deductions for any charity received by the victim's dependants. They are ENTITLED to their share REGARDLESS of any gifts they may have received. c) Life insurance was PAID for by the Victim and should not have any bearing on what the family has a right to. d) The right to appeal should not be denied to those who are suffering due to the tragic losses inflicted on them by this horrific event. I believe that those who died as a result of the sick acts of heartless individuals paid the ultimate price. The injustice of this crime need not be perpetuated by compounding the losses to the victims families. Let us give them what they are entitled to without chiseling off anything. Eventhough the numbers are greater it doesn't mean that each indivual isn't suffering. For the rest of us the numbers are tremendous. We are overwhelmed by the thousands of lives lost. For the families it's not numbers it's a FATHER OR MOTHER OR SISTER OR BROTHER OR SON OR DAUGHTER OR LOVER OR FRIEND OR AUNT OR UNCLE OR NEICE OR (in my case) NEPHEW. Let's show them that we have a heart. If this had happened to one or ten people this restrictions would be unheard of. For these families it did happen to just ONE PERSON, their loved one.
