9/11/01 Victim Compensation Fund

I am e-mailing today in response to the Department of Justice's request
for public comments regarding the forthcoming regulations for implementing
and administering the "September 11 Victim Compensation Fund." I urge the
Department to draft regulations that will ensure compensation is available
to all victims of the attack, including the committed partners and the
non-biological children of gay and lesbian victims.

Many Americans lost their lives on September 11, each of whom left behind
loved ones. I urge the Department of Justice to honor these bonds by
treating the families of gay and lesbian victims as you would any other.
