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. Thursday, November 08, 2001 11:54 AM Federal vs. Private Aid My husband and I donated $1000.00 to the United Way September 11th fund. This is the largest donation we have ever made to any charity or non-profit organization. We made the donation with the idea that the money would go directly to the victim's families and especially to their children. However, we are concerned with all of the reports in the papers about potential abuse, reluctance of families to deal with the bureaucracies and paperwork, and migrant workers who have lost everything and cannot receive compensation because of their illegal status. We hope the Federal government will step in and assist in the distribution of charity and government funds to assure that all victims are adequately compensated and possible abuse of funds or double-dipping is curtailed. Fair limits should be imposed. We must remember we are fighting a war. Our economy will be seriously stretched for the foreseeable future. The terrorists aim to destroy us by harming the world economy. We must be conscious of these facts whenever appropriating funds.
