September 11 Victim Compensation Fund
Dear Mr. Zwick:
I strongly urge the Department to draft regulations that ensure
compensation is available to all victims of the September 11 attack,
including the committed partners and the non-biological children
of gay and lesbian victims.
The grief and economic losses felt by the families of gay
and lesbian victims are equal to that of other families.
Just as the terrorists drew no lines in choosing their victims,
our country must draw no lines in compensating those who
suffered these terrible losses.
Sincerely,
Individual Comment
