Benefits for Gay and Lesbian Families

Hello, as a loyal taxpaying gay citizen of the United States I am appalled that there are no guaranteed benefits for the families of Gay and Lesbian victims of the 9/11 tragedies.

How can you levy taxes on the previous incomes of those deceased victims and not be willing to give them the same compensation that you give heterosexual victim's families? Is that equal treatment under the law? Special rights?

Where is the "compassionate conservatism" that President Bush spoke about during his campaign? To receive respect you must earn respect by acting in an honest, forthright and equal way to everyone.

Thank you,
