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, March 16, 2002 1:06 PM Give benefits to all family members of 9/11 victims To Whom It May Concern, When will the selective discrimination end? At one point you say you will overlook the law and not deport illegal aliens which I totally agree with, but then you turn around and say the law prevents you from delivering benefits to life partners of gay and lesbian victims because they are not married - yet your laws prevent them from being married. You cannot have it both ways. Either let us get married, or give us our rights to the benefits we earn as tax paying citizens, even our survivor benefits as life partners of the victims of 9/11. Either stand by all the laws, or overlook the laws to treat everyone fairly and equitably. To do otherwise is to exacerbate the losses of gay and lesbian partners unduly and unjustly.
