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. To whom it may concern, It would seem the opportunists have started to come out of the woodwork now that it appears something will happen with the moneys donated for the disaster. The relief fund should provide for the needs of the victims of September 11 not everyone affected by the disaster. There is no one who was not affected by September 11. There are untold numbers of businesses that as a direct result of the eleventh will either go out of business or have a hard go of it in the near future. Unfortunately I am one of them and although the coming months will be difficult, I don't expect to be compensated because of this. In retrospect, I am very thankful however, for of the blessings and good fortune afforded my family. If someone lost a family member due to the disaster, then I would suggest that family receive their loved ones yearly salary for a specified period of time. I'm not sure if that should be for life or until their loved one would have retired. Secondly, a trust could be set up for dependents children for their college education and expenses. Fireman and Policeman would already be taken care of through their unions.
