Discrimination against victims of September 11th


Dear Victims' Compensation Fund:

Below is an article about the Fund's intent to unfairly discriminate against
gay Americans. I urge you to do the right thing and treat all Americans
fairly. In determining your compensation policies you seem to be guided by
compassion and fairness, disregarding discriminatory federal and state laws,
in all regards but one -- when it comes to gay Americans. The survivors of
the people who died deserve compensation, regardless of the victim's race,
gender, religion, creed, national origin -- or sexual orientation. Please do
the right thing and amend your guidelines to include everyone who died and
the people they left behind.
