9/11 Fund Exclusion of Gays

To Whom This May Concern,

I am writing to you out of great disappointment for the decision to limit
compensation to the gay/lesbian partners of 9/11 victims.

It is absolutely shameful of you to exclude these domestic partners. Unborn
fetuses and illegal aliens are covered in you plan, but not gay/lesbian
partners??!! Shame on you!!

All victims of 9/11 gave and suffered equally. And still, you have the
audacity to dole out compensation in an unequal manner. Discrimination is
un-American.

I strongly urge you re-visit your discriminatory policy regarding gay/lesbian
domestic partners.

I have already my multiple donations to organizations that benefit the
victims and families of 9/11. However, I feel so strongly about your
discrimination towards gays and lesbians that I will be certain to only give
future donations to organizations other than your own. I will be certain to
place my charity with those who are truly practicing it.

Sincerely,

Individual Comment
Madison, WI
