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. Monday, March 18, 2002 8:17 AM GLBT people excluded from victim's compensations To Whom it May Concern, I cannot tell you how outraged I am that once again we as GLBT people are being excluded when it comes to an issue of basic fairness. The people who died saving lives in the World Trade Center did not care if the people they were working to save were gay or straight. The people who were being saved did not care if the people who were saving them were gay or straight. Yet, when it comes time to, in a small way, acknowledge and compensate the people who gave their lives on that tragic day, sexual orientation suddenly becomes an issue. If September 11 and it's aftermath taught us anything, it's that we need to put aside our differences and unite. As far as I'm concerned, failure to acknowledge, personally and financially, the contributions of our GLBT citizens weakens us as both a people and a nation.
