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. Friday, December 21, 2001 4:35 PM Victims Compensation Fund Eligibility Gentlemen: I have two concerns about the distribution of the money to the "victims" of 11 September: 1. Whether an individual had life insurance or not should have no bearing on the amount they receive. If the premiums were paid with their disposable income, you should not penalize that family since they gave up the use of those funds for additional protection. The family's present financial situation should not influence the amount to be received. 2. I have great concern with using taxpayer's money for compensation to what is called "undocumented" aliens. If this is just a politically correct way of saying "illegal" aliens, I object strongly to giving taxpayer's money to someone who has broken US law. It is rewarding bad behavior with our money and should not take place. Do you intend to send money to the hijackers' families as well? They too were in our country illegally and should have no monetary benefit from illegal actions. Thank you for your consideration and remember, this is not your money, it is ours (taxpayers).
