September 11 Victim Compensation Fund
Dear Mr. Zwick:
I am responding to the Department's request for public comments
regarding the forthcoming regulations for implementing and
administering the "September 11 Victim Compensation Fund." I urge
the Department to draft regulations that ensure compensation is
available to all victims of the attack, including the committed
partners and the non-biological children of gay and lesbian
victims.
Many Americans lost their lives on September 11, each of whom
left behind loved ones. I urge the Department to honor these
bonds by treating the families of gay and lesbian victims as you
would any other.
Sincerely,
Individual Comment
Columbus, OH
