These e-mails have been organized here by date. September 11 Email September 11 Email: Body The basic content, as unstructured text; sometimes containing a signature block at the end. Tuesday, December 04, 2001 11:23 AM Sept. 11 relief To whom it may concern: As an American, I feel strongly that all individuals who died and their families deserve equitable support from our country. Our highest ideals are "Liberty and Justice for all" In this crisis all Americans have stepped forward to help others. We must stand to our highest ideals in this time of national crisis and compensate families of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered people in the same manner we would others. We have many models for how this can be done with same sex partner insurance present in many progressive companies today. In addition we must support the families of undocumented immigrants in the same way. Our economy has benefited from their contribution and their families will feel the loss of their presence. In the plan that was crashed in Pennsylvania by courageous Americans seeking to protect the capital, it was even a gay man that was involved in overtaking the hijackers. As an American who believes in our ideals, I urge all of you involved with this compensation effort to remember the core values that make our country what it is.
