Bias


I am concerned about potential bias in awarding compensation to the survivors of the 9/11 attacks. According to statements made by Mr. Kenneth Feinberg on Sunday, March 10 on NBC's "Meet the Press," it appears that partners of gay and lesbian victims will not be compensated. Mr. Feinberg must realize that most states do not provide benefits to gay and lesbian partners. This is not an appropriate standard to decide who is to be compensated and who will not be compensated. Survivors of ALL victims should be compensated.

Sincerely,
Individual Comment
