WTC Fund
Dear Sirs:
I lost my 24 year old daughter ( ...employee of , & ) in the WTC , and don't seem to be on anyone's lists for notification about the federal fund, charities, or anything else. Perhaps this is because I have been divorced from mother for 20 years and all the data bases contain only her name.
I learned of this meeting, by the way, this morning from mother, but only because I happened to send her an email wondering why I
am never informed of anything by any charity, fund etc.
I have heard from Gov. Pataki and from Lindsay's employer, but that is
it.
With respect to what I've heard of the federal fund parameters, the
amount of support contemplated for those of us who "only" have "pain &
suffering"....rather than loss of breadwinner as well...the contemplated
amounts for families seems indescribably inadequate and unfair. My
understanding is that the familielies of airline victims are to be paid
$2 million each for " pain & suffering" vs. $200,000 for families who
lost loved ones at the WTC itself ( less insurance, pensions, etc).
This is inhuman. You might as well anoounce that the loss of a 24 year
old daughter to her parents has no value.
At a minimum, the "compensation" for airline victims and WTC
victims...for pain and suffering...should be the same.
Respectfully,
Individual Comment
