I would like to ask the Justice Department to include among relatives eligible for compensation those who lost their life partners in the September 11 attack as well as de facto parents or children, without regard to sexual orientation or marital status.
Also I would like the U.S. Government to follow the example already set by New York Governor Pataki in granting compensation benefits "on a showing of mutual interdependence with the victim, in recognition that anyone who shared with the victim living expenses, day-to-day activities and the emotional bonds of family deserves help in this time of need."
Thank you.
