discrimination
It has just come to my attention that the gay and lesbian partners of those
that perished in the World Trade Center attack will not necessarily be
compensated for the loss of their loved ones. I find this to be
discriminatory and un-American. Gay and lesbian family's work, love, pay
taxes, and vote just like heterosexual families. The difference is that we
are not allowed to form legal domestic partnerships through no fault of our
own.It is just wrong to compensate the families of illegal aliens and not
take care of our own people. I was a contributor to a couple of the victim
funds immediately following the attack and I am starting to feel betrayed. I
ask that you reconsider your decision and do what is morally correct.
Thank
you.
