Re: GLBT family compensation

To whom it concerns:

Please do our country proud by treating ALL citizens equally who lost family
members in the September 11th tragedy. Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and
Transgendered family members are no less affected by their losses because
current U.S. law prohibits them from "legalizing" their relationships
through the channels heterosexual couples and families have available.

Please include among relatives eligible for compensation those who lost
their life partners or de facto parents or children, regardless of sexual
orientation or marital status.

Thank you.
