Please include gay and lesbian partners in September 11th Victims Compensation Fund

To Whom It May Concern:

I have recently learned that gay and lesbian partners
of those who died on September 11 are not
automatically going to receive the same benefits as
heterosexual spouses. That is APPALLING. Even
fetuses and illegal aliens are covered.

There were many heroes on September 11 and many of
them are gay. Just a few gay heros are
who helped bring down the flight in Pennsylvania, NY
Fire Dept. who died in
the line of duty when the first tower fell, and who was . I strongly urge Kenneth Feinberg, head of the September 11 Victims Compensation Fund,
to change his position and treat all victims of
September 11th equally and fairly.

Thank you for your time.
