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, January 22, 2002 4:00 PM Compensation Plan TO: Kenneth L. Zwick, Director There is no denying that the Sept. 11 attacks were horrendous and life altering............... But my husband I have discussed this in great length and this is what we think. If my husband walked out the door today and got hit by a car the impact on our family would be no less than it was for any of the families affected by the 9/11 deaths. The financial and emotional impact would be the same. But somehow I do not think if I called my mortgage company they would grant me penalty free payment forgiveness, I do not think if I called the student loan processor that forbearance would be given, and I can guarantee that if I called the federal government I would not receive a check for over a million dollars. Aren't we all suppose to be responsible for our own families? Tonight my husband and I are completely medical screening exams to purchase additional life insurance policies (which we have to scrimp to pay for) to provide for each other in case of an emergency. The majority of employees who worked in the WTC buildings made good money and were fiscally aware and should have life insurance. Why do their children need more money and assistance than my daughter would? We think the amount of these awards are extremely high and wonder how we as a country are going to fund this? What about the families of the 50,000 people who are murdered every year, or the families whose loved ones are killed in auto accidents..........why aren't they being helped?
