victim relief

Dear Mr. Zwick:

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

There is no limit to grief. Many Americans lost their lives on September 11,
each of whom left behind loved ones. I urge the Department to honor these
bonds by treating the families of gay and lesbian victims as you would any
other.

Sincerely,
Individual Comment
Bainbridge Is., WA
