The unfair reality of the Victims Compensation Fund
I lost my husband on 9/11. I have three children ages 4 and 2 and one
born one month after the attack. His company is only giving
health care benefits until April of this year. How can I afford health care
when the fund is deducting life insurance, pensions (which I do not have) and
charitable donations as well as placing an economic cap on the salaries
earned? How can I manage when I will walk away with a little over a years
salary? I do not and will never have the earning potential my dear husband
had not to mention that I was a stay at home mother. Please I implore you to
revise the rules to not include life insurance which we paid for and
sacrificed to have. I feel as though we have already paid the ultimate
sacrifice...a lifetime without my husband, a daughter who never met her
father and two children who will only have vague memories. Haven't we been
robbed and raped enough? Please do what is right and just for our children
in the name of our loved ones.
Thank You.
