Dear Mr. Zwick
I am strongly urge the Department of Justice to draft regulations that
ensure compensation is available to all victims of the attack, including the
committed partners and the non-biological children of gay and lesbian
victims.
The devastating grief and economic losses suffered by the families of gay
and lesbian victims are no less than that of other families. The terrorists
drew no lines in choosing their victims, our country must NOT draw lines in
compensating those who suffered the most personal of losses from these
horrific attacks.
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
