Dear Director Zwick:
I am writing to support the position of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force in their letter to you dated November 21, 2001 regarding disbursement of monies from the September 11 Fund. I agree with the need for the Department of Justice to Department to "include among relatives eligible for compensation those who lost their life partners or de facto parents or children, regardless of sexual orientation and marital status."
The horrific loss of loved ones to a random terrorist act should not be compounded by our own government denying survivors whatever benefits may be available simply because we fail to have laws to protect all of our citizens.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Very truly yours,
