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. Friday, March 22, 2002 9:08 AM 9/11 Victims Comp comment Dear Mr. Kenneth L. Zwick and DOJ Management Programs Staff: Americans and indeed citizens of the world as a whole will look back at the distribution of compensation for devastating loss in the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon with added, unnecessary horror, if benefits are withheld from the gay and lesbian partners of Americans who died on September 11. American children of the future, especially, will read this history and be ashamed of the backwardness of our leaders for this prejudice. Most importantly, this attack against the loving partners of ordinary citizens, some of whom took extraordinary action to save others on that day, adds to the nightmare of intolerance which enveloped their love in flames. Shame on the Department of Justice. Shame on America. Do the right thing.
