victims compensation

Attachment 1:

Dear Mr. Zwick:



I am writing in response to the DOJ's request for public comments regarding the forthcoming regulations for implementing and administering the "9/11 Victim
Compensation Fund."

I strongly urge the DOJ to draft regulations that will compensate all the victims of the attack, including the committed partners and all non-biological children of gay
and lesbian victims.

It's not hard to realize that the grief and suffering felt is no less to those families than to the others.

Many Americans lost their lives on September 11, each of whom left loved ones behind. I strongly urge the Department to honor these bonds by treating the
families of gay and lesbian victims as you would any other.



Sincerely,
Individual Comment
Norwich, CT
