9/11 Compensation Fund

I have become aware that the regulations governing distribution of
compensation to victims of the 9/11 tragegies prohibit funds going to the
partners and family members of gay and lesbian victims. At the same time
funds are allowed to be distributed to partners and families of illegal
aliens and unborn children.

If either or both of these regulations are true, I wish to strongly protest
the discrimination and inequities inherent in them. It is abhorrent to think
that such biased rules be in effect for a tragegy that barred noone from its
victim list.
