Tuesday, March 12, 2002 5:44 PM gays/lesbians To whom it may concern, I am shocked and disgusted that partners of gays and lesbians will not be receiving compensation if the state in which they reside does not have domestic partnership laws, yet families of illegal aliens will be compensated (contrary to state laws!). This is bigoted and discriminatory. At this moment I am ashamed to be represented by this Congress that would put together such a disgusting bill. What happened to "and justice for all?" Are the homosexuals who died on 9/11 less heroic than the straight people who died? Did their families cry less at their passing? NO! So why shouldnt the loved ones of homosexuals get the same compensation as other families? The Victim Compensation Bill should be amended to " Some-of-the-Victims Compensation Bill" if partners of gays and lesbians are not equally compensated for the loss of their loved ones.Individual Comment Malibu, CA September 11 Email: Date The local time and date when the message was written. 2002-03-12 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
