September 11th Victims Fund

To Whom It May Concern,

Although I think it is great that there is a fund to help families of
the victims of September 11th, I find it disgusting and immoral that you
are excluding the partners of those victims who were gay. How can you
exclude certain parties just because of their sexual orientation? That
goes against the claims that this disaster has brought the nation
together. It's all very Orwellian, and it scares me. Please don't do
this. Please don't exclude anyone. It's time for us to really come
together as a nation, and excluding certain people from this fund is
very un-American and extremely discriminatory, and it only fuels hatred.
Thank you for taking the time to read this. Below is some copy from the
email I received that informed me about this injustice.

Sincerely,
Individual Comment
Honolulu, HI
