Monday, March 18, 2002 10:21 AM Inquiry about benefits Hi, I would like to know if it is true that some of the partners of our homosexual heroes of 9/11 will not be receiving any benefits. As the long term partner (20 years) of a New York native, I would find that to be particularly insulting. While I can see that there could be some concern about fraud, since most states do not allow legal documentation of these relationships. However, that is no excuse to pour a pound of salt into gaping wound. I'm sure that there cannot be more than two hundred of these cases. Whatever investigation is necessary should be done to ensure that fraud does not occur. For example, joint ownership of bank accounts or real estate could be verified. To ignore the loved ones of those who died would be almost as inhuman as the act itself.
