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. Saturday, December 29, 2001 1:50 PM September 11 Victims Compensation Fund To Whom It May Concern: My husband &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp was an employee of &nbsp&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp who died in the World Trade Center attack. I would like to object to the proposed compensation formula presented by Special Master Feinberg. In order for the compensation fund to work, it needs to provide compensation in line with comparable wrongful death actions. By requiring offsets for collateral funds, this fund is unable to come even close. Under the provisions, my family would stand to receive $0, even though Mr. Feinberg would have the public believe that most families would receive substantial compensation. Why should the insurance companies and pension funds bear the responsibility for the failure of so many parties to protect the tenants in the World Trade Center? I would like to propose that all offsets be cancelled and the non-economic portion of the compensation be amended to reflect the amounts awarded in similar wrongful death actions.
