Sunday, March 17, 2002 3:56 PM 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.
