Lisa A. Linsky was quoted in the June 27 issue of the New York Law Journal in an article regarding a suit against the federal government on behalf of Gary Day, a disabled gay father whose requests for financial assistance for his two children have been repeatedly ignored. Ms. Linsky, Amy Beard, Todd A. Solomon, Amy M. Gordon, Daniel A. Mullen and Robin L. Zimmerly have teamed with Lambda Legal to represent Mr. Day in the case. Ms. Linsky noted that Mr. Day and his children "meet all the requirements that the agency needs to provide benefits" and that the Social Security Administration's delayed response "is unwarranted and prejudicial" and "constitutes blatant discrimination."
