Thursday, March 28, 2002 3:20 PM Compensations for 9/11 Victims Sir, It is unconscienable and beyond belief that your office and its regulations would deny compensation to longtime companions of loving gay and/or lesbian individuals otherwise deserving who perished on 9/11. They should be treated with the same consideration, respect, and compensation as anyone else. In fact, it is simply not acceptable, and I will surely vote my conscience in this matter in every election possible. Further, I will speak out against you -- and any administration which supports such unthinkable and grossly unfair behavior. If you act from love and real human concerns rather than from fear of fundamentalist religious and political bigots, you will provide compensation where it is surely due. Further, I am urging all my friends and colleagues with extensive mailing lists to let you know of their feelings on this important matter. Sincerely, Individual Comment September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written. 2002-03-28 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
