victim compensation


Dear Mr. Zwick:

I am writing in response to the Department's request for public
comments regarding 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.

Discriminating against victims because of sexual orientation is wrong.
I urge the Department to treat the families of gay and lesbian victims as you
would any other.

Sincerely,

Individual Comment
Ithaca, NY
