Dear Sir or Madam -



I am outraged at the obtuse dicrimination that is evident in the 9/11 victim's compensation package. People who have had committed partners for tens of years -
- people who have paid their taxes - - people who have largely contributed to our society are being denied fair and legal compensation because of downright
bigotry. I am astounded that illegal aliens - people who have not paid taxes into this system - are covered; yet long-term tax paying partners of gay people are
not covered. Your decision disgusts me....it is an insult to hard-working americans gay or straight. Moreover it is an insult to the very foundation and flag of this
country. Shame on all of you!

With much disdain and disgust,

Individual Comment
