Dear Mr. Zwick:
I am writing concerning the "September 11 Victim Compensation Fund."
I strongly urge the Department to make sure that
compensation is available to all victims of the attack,
INCUDING the committed partners and the non-biological children
of gay and lesbian victims.
All Americans suffered when this attack happened... including our Gay and
Lesbian brothers and sisters. Just as the terrorists
drew no lines in choosing their victims, our country must draw
no lines in compensating those who suffered the most personal of
losses from these horrific attacks.
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
