APPLICANTS RUSH TO MEET DEADLINE FOR SEPT. 11 FUND
Article Abstract:
The Victim Compensation Fund reached its deadline to help relatives of Sept. 11 victims. Many had reservations over the program's methods of setting up compensation procedures, but 95% of eligible relatives filed applications before the deadline. Congress failed to pass an extension of the deadline for families despite extensive political support for a one-year addition to the Dec. 22, 2003 cutoff.
