"September 11 Victim Compensation Fund"

Dear Mr. Zwick:

I strongly urge that families of all September 11th victims receive help from the "Victim Compensation Fund" regardless of race, color, creed, or sexual orientation.

It truly makes me sick to my stomach that anyone would have to write a letter such as this--that any life or family isn't as important as another--that there is discrimination even in death; how discussing.

As a first generation American, whose parents arrived at Ellis Island, I have always been proud that they came to this country and helped build it and have impressed their legacy on my children. Now I'm not so sure of my pride if we allow a certain group (the American Taliban?) to cruelly encourage discrimination in the most horrific form.

It should be remembered that all working people pay taxes to the government, not just the Christian Right.
