Help same sex partners of terrorist victims
Dear Mr. Zwick:
The very humane Fund for relatives of victims of the September 11 terrorist attacks must include all relatives of all the victims.
This importantly should include the partners and children of same sex unions. They suffer just as grievously for their deceased loved ones as do other survivors, and their need for assistance is just as great.
Please do not give in to the importuning of callous homophobic groups and individuals who would have the Department of Justice limit compensation to survivors of heterosexual unions. They are interested in a political victory, not humane assistance.
This Fund is intended for humane purposes; it is not a political statement, Mr. Zwick.
Sincerely,
Individual Comment
