Victim Compensation
I feel that it is entirely appropriate that any payments from this fund first be adjusted for any insurance, pension or other payments that a victim's family may be entitled to.
There should be no reason for anyone to get compensation from this fund, other that expenses for burial etc., for any minor that may have perished as a result of this attack.
The families of any government workers who lost their lives will be compensated by the agency they worked for, any union affiliation insurance program, the State of New York and the federal government.
Nobody should expect to get money from this fund of equal amounts.
Please see that the right thing is done.
