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 10:24 AM I am saddened once again by your lack of equality It has come to my attention that everyone, including illegal aliens (who will be treated with impunity to encourage them to come forward and claim their money) will come under the umbrella of the 9/11 fund. Everyone except those partners of gay and lesbian men and women who suffered the same losses as everyone else did. Actually, they now suffer a greater loss. They are not even being recognized as worthy of aid. Several gay men were involved in diverting the plane into the Pennsylvania field. They saved many lives of people who constantly spit on them when passing legislation. It takes a true hero to save people you know would rather see you dead. As a taxpayer who in effect supports the Dept. of Justice I think it is a sad day when lawbreakers like illegal aliens and the businesses that hire them are receiving better treatment than law-abiding citizens. I always knew John Ashcroft was trouble, but I really knew something was wrong when the works of art (the statuary) around the Dept.of Justice building were covered up. Why didn't he just order them blown to bits like the Taliban did to those ancient Buddhas? You insult all Americans and all that America stands for when you constantly maneuver every way you can to deprive gays and lesbians the equal right to employment protection, housing protection, and every other protection that every other citizen enjoys. We're all waving flags, alright, but the country has not become closer and more united, except in fighting the common enemy at hand. There is no room for bigotry in this country, and the role model against it should be how our government presents itself. You are doing a dismal job so far.
