Exclusion of gay families from the fund.

Hello,

The decision to exclude gay families from this compensation fund, and this
exscuse that the States have different laws, is an insult to the families of
those who were gay and who lost their lives in this tragedy. This is a time
to do the right thing, this is a time when the exercise of real leadership
would make this fund available for everyone who lost loved ones. How tragic
that this is not happening.

This is going to be remembered as one clear shameful black mark on our
efforts to rebuild this country after this tragedy.
