September 11 Victims Compensation Fund Feedback

Hello,
I am providing feedback on the September 11 Victims Compensation Fund
I would like to ask that eligibility to receive compensation be inclusive of
ALL Americans impacted by this tragedy. This includes those who lost their
life partners as well as de facto parents of children, without regard to
sexual orientation or marital status.
I believe, the example of Governor Pataki of New York should be followed.
New York is granting compensation benefits 'on a showing of mutual
interdependence with the victim, in recognition that anyone who shared with
the victim living expenses, day-to-day activities and the emotional bonds of
family deserves help in this time of need'.

Thank you for the opportunity to provide feedback regarding the
administration of the fund.
Regards,
Individual Comment
