Sept 11 Victims Fund - All Americans must be compensated

Dear Mr. Kenneth Feinberg:

I am outraged that gay and lesbian partners of those who died on
September 11 are not automatically going to receive the same benefits as
heterosexual spouses. Did we learn anything from the horrific events of
September 11? If the law can be bent for undocumented aliens then surely
it can be bent for American citizens who showed us how heroes are not
defined by skin color, profession, religious preference, or sexual
orientation, but by their unselfish actions in the face of disaster.
