Sunday, March 17, 2002 11:58 PM Support Compensation for Gay/Lesbian Partners of Victims I urge you to support equal compensation to the partners of gay and lesbian victims of September 11th. One gay man, , helped bring down the plane that might have otherwise crash-bombed into the Capitol. Hundreds more died; their lives are just as valuable as the other victims. These were mostly American citizens; we must treat their surviving partners with equal consideration of legally-wed spouses. I am a 7th generation American, born in Washington, DC, son of a major US government official. I vote in every national, state, and local election. I demand nothing less than equal treatment for my fellow gay and lesbian citizens, both the victims of September 11th and their partners. Thank you.
