RE: compensation for gay partners!

To whom it may concern,

Like many New Yorkers, I have been greatly affected by
the tragedy that occurred on 9/11. Since then nothing
has gotten me more infuriated than hearing that gay
partners will not be receiving the same benefits as
heterosexual partners. How can we overlook the fact
we are providing for everyone else besides homosexual
individuals? i understand that victims of tragedy are
not always entitled to compensation for their losses.
this fund was created out of the generosity of many
individuals in this country. homosexuals are also a
part of this country. why should they be
discriminated against. I urge you to reconsider this
decision. Thank you

sincerely,

Individual Comment
