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. Monday, March 11, 2002 5:01 PM Regarding the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund To Whom it May Concern, Can the attached text really be accurate? Did Mr Feinberg really appear on national TV and state that both the Attorney General and the 9/11 fund were willing to overlook the status of affected illegal aliens when determining victim compensation yet were not going to extend this leeway to gay victims? How can this possible occur? I have no agenda to advance regarding the status of either an illegal alien or a gay person affected by this tragedy. I am offended that any single human being who lost a life or was injured during the events of September 11 would be denied the compensation that everyone else will receive. If we are not about Freedom and Equality as a result of this horrific act, then we have learned nothing from it. Is it really acceptable to tell the nation that for one group, the laws are set aside while for another group, the people are the ones set aside? Please review the message that this selective policy sends to the country. I hope to hear that every victim will receive equal compensation under the 9/11 Funds's guidance.
