MR. K L ZWICK, DIRECTOR
PFFICE OF MANGEMENT PROGRAMS
US DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
RE: VICTIM COMPENSATION FUND

MR ZWICK;

As a member of the Gay community, I strongly urge you NOT to forget the families and loved ones of the September 11 victims.

Members of the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgendered community have suffered as great a loss as the general population. A Gay hero in the plane that crashed in      , a Gay      who died at Ground Zero      . Real people, real situtations, real pain, real loss-needs real compensation.

Please follow the lead of NY Governor Pataki who granted compensation benefit "on a showing of mutual interdependence with the victim, in recognition that anyone who shared with the living expenses , day-to-day activities and the emotion bonds of family deserves help in this time of need."

Include any relatives eligible for compensation: those who lost their life partners as well as de facto parents of children, without regard to sexual orientation or marital status.

DO NOT FORGET THE GAY, LESBIAN, BISEXUAL AND TRANSGENDERED COMMUNITY.

SINCERELY.
