funds to domestic partners?


Dear Director of the 911 Fund:
I was just informed that my contribution to the 911
fund will not go to all victim's families, namely the
domestic partners of gays and lesbians that perished
on 9/11. As a tax payer, a contributor to the fund, a
lesbian, and as a human being - I cannot fathom the
biased behavior at work here. I am DISGUSTED and
would prefer my contribution be returned so I could
send it directly to a domestic partner who will most
likely get nothing from the process. A life is a life
and a tragic death is a death...how can you with any
concious at all declare one life more valuable than
another. What gives you that right?

Sincerely,

Individual Comment
Pleasanton, CA
