Important comment
I just received an e-mail re: the intention to not support partners and
family members of victims who were gay or lesbian. I am truly alarmed at
what this nation has come to - as if saying that because you are gay or
lesbian you don't count, yet illegal aliens do count.
I contributed to the fund and expected that my donation would be used
fairly, not in such a way that discriminates against a very valuable
segment of our society. My daughter went to the World Trade Center and
volunteered for a week (an experience that still shakes her to the core)
- I supported her in her work believing that she was helping all victims.
Please consider extending benefits to life partners and families of those
who were gay and lesbian and also victims and heroes.
Thank you for your understanding.
Sincerely,
Individual Comment
