911 Fund

It has come to my attention that a decision has been made regarding gay and
lesbian partners of 911 Victims that has me outraged.
This decision is to deny the same compensation from the 911 fund to these
partners and at the same time allowing funds to be paid to unborn fetuses and
also illegal aliens.
If anything should have been learned from the tragedy of 9-11 is that we are
all Americans no matter what our color, sex, lifestyle.
There were many gay and lesbian heroes on September 11th, including one of
the pilots of one of the planes involved.
For our government to even entertain the idea of denying rights to ANY human
effected by this tragedy is beyond comprehension.
Thank You.
