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. Tuesday, March 12, 2002 10:34 PM September 11 compensation fund fiasco I was outraged by Kenneth Feinbergs statements made last Sunday on Meet the Press regarding your administration's plan to discriminate against gay and lesbian victims of the September 11 attacks and their survivors. Attorney General Ashcroft is willing to disregard the law by awarding compensation to illegal aliens, but for gay and lesbian Americans, be they firefighters, police, or the passenger on the United Airlines flight who averted the destruction of the nation's house of Congress, they are denied equal treatment under your governments compensation plan. (passenger/hero on the United flight in Pennsylvania) died so that you and the capitol might live on, the least you can do is treat him and his memory as good as an illegal alien. In the words of Sen. John McCain, "America will overcome these atrocities. We will prevail over our enemies. We will right this terrible injustice. And when we do, let us claim it as a tribute to our liberty, and to and all those who died to defend it." Sincerely, U. S.
