include Gay partnership

Dear Attorney General Ashcroft,

The deaths on September 11th were the result of an attack on America.
Please do not discriminate against the unmarried partners of September
11th
victims. All unmarried partners, gay or straight, young and old and
their
dependents should be eligible for compensation. In a time of crisis we
are not asking for special rights or recognition, but simply asking for
the same fundamental rights that all Americans are entitled to. Why do
you continue to exclude a certain sector of society based on religious
beliefs? I thought the U.S law was above that.
Thank you for your time.

Thank you,
