| | President Clinton fumes over 9/11 families neglect
 Families of the victims of terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 are being neglected by government agencies, and President Clinton is taking issue with it. CBS' Lou Young reports.
"Tonight, a former president met with victims for whom 9/11 was only yesterday," said Young. "The Former President tonight tells me the needs of surviving victims are going unmet. He's especially upset that his 9/11 freedom scholarships are wrapped up in red tape."
"We waste $110 million to guarantee that all the children and spouses who chose to, of people killed or disabled in America or around the world, will be able to get a college education. And, there are serious problems with the way that fund is being administered," said President Clinton."
"And you're not happy with it?" asked a CBS reporter.
"No," he replied. "I mean, I'm happy for the ones that have gotten a grant and have been helped -- there are hundreds of 'em who have -- but we have lots of problems with it."
