September 11 Victim Compensation Fund
Kenneth L. Zwick, Director
Office of Management Programs
U.S. Department of Justice
Sir,
I'm asking that you include among relatives eligible for compenstaion those
who have lost their life partners as well as de facto parents or children,
without regard to sexual orientation or marital status.
Please 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.
