Monday, November 26, 2001 5:24 PM fight against discrimination November 26, 2001 Dear Attorney General Ashcroft, I am writing to you because I have been told that unmarried partners of homosexual victims will not be compensated properly in the wake of the September 11th tragedies. The deaths on that day were the result of an attack on America and all its citizens - gay and straight, male and female, black and white, Christian Jewish, Muslim. I urge you to demonstrate the unity of our society by working to fight any discrimination in the treatment of September 11th victims. All unmarried partners, gay or straight, young and old and their dependents should be eligible for compensation. Thank you for listening to the many voices of America. Sincerely, Individual Comment September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written. 2001-11-26 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
