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, March 12, 2002 10:36 AM Gay/Lesbian Discrimination Mr. Kenneth Feinberg: I did not donate to the September 11th Fund only to have it used as a source of deviciveness. I have just finished reading an article where Kenneth Feinberg stated that he will follow each states individual laws on homosexuality when it comes to distribution of September 11th Funds. This makes me sick. At a time when we are all pulling together to comfort and reassure each other while workng to rebuild and revitalize an already divided nation, the September 11th Fund should be leading the way with equal distribution of benefits despite the controversy of gay unions. You should be saying "Hey, this is an assistance program for everyone during a time of great stress and termoil. This doesn't have anything to do with any individual state's laws on recognition of gay/lesbian unions. All other federal programs adhere to a non-discrimination policy (such as the Ryan White CARE Act) that serve everyone despite our differences. Isn't that what it's all about - accepting each other and our differences? Thank you for listening.
