Subject: re: Compensation for All Victims of 9/11

Dear Mr. Zwick and others to whom it may concern:

It is my sincere hope, the Bush Administration and Justice Department do not
make compensation, for the victims and relatives of the 9/11 attacks, a
"political statement" or "agenda item". The "September 11 Victim
Compensation Fund" should not be used as a lightening rod for political
grand-standing.

I strongly encourage the inclusion of all human beings, affected by this
National tragedy, in any relief effort provided. Specifically, it would be
repugnant to exclude surviving loved ones of lesbian/gay family members, when
doling out remedial resources. Such exclusion would only serve to deepen the
pain felt by those survivors, adding vast insult to incomprehensible injury.
Surely, such an act of malice would be considered equally repugnant by the
current administration and those heading-up the Justice Department, whose
family-friendly focus has been much touted throughout the press.

Please, do not disappoint this active community member and long-time voter.

Sincerely,
Individual Comment
Park Ridge, Illinois
