October 8, 1996 Mr. Stephen Wolf Chief Executive Officer, USAir USAir Executive Offices Crystal Park Four 2345 Crystal Drive Arlington, VA 22227 Dear Mr. Wolf: We understand that USAir is considering offering benefits to the same-sex partners of its employees. With same-gender marriages still not legally recognized, we believe that such an action is the right one to take, and is an opportunity for USAir to take a stand for morality and fairness. Please do offer benefits to the same-gender partners of USAir employees. Sincerely, Barbara Purdom Christopher Purdom Interfaith Working Group Coordinators
