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, November 06, 2001 8:51 AM To Whom it May Concern: To Whom it May Concern: Are there not already laws for those receiving both federal disaster aid as well as private? Weren't both federal and private monies distributed to families affected by Hurricane Andrew? How were they handled? I believe laws of these type already exist. No one was decrying the giving of both federal and private monies to families and victims of Hurricane Andrew, why would this disaster be any different? The enormity of giving by private individuals may be unprecedented in this case, but the size of the donations is irrelevant to the (existing) procedure for dispensing of them. If the issue is that the laws on this matter do not exist or need to be reviewed than make that known and how the law needs to be changed, in order to better assist victims and their families. But circumventing existing laws and writing new ones, for this case, will only lead to another rewriting (and another) as each disaster gets worse and worse. Thank you for your patient review of my comments. I hope a clear and fair path can be found in this matter.
