9-11 Compensation Fund
Dear Kenneth Feinburg:
RE: discrimination is un-American; however, the September 11 Victim Compensation Fund does exactly that by excluding non-heterosexuals.
Despite the post 9-11 movement to unite the nation, the September 11 Victim Compensation Fund has clear direction that the partners of gay and lesbian heroes of September 11 will not necessarily receive the same benefits as the spouses of heterosexual victims of the horrible terror attacks.
Even fetuses and illegal aliens will be receiving benefits under this problem - they've even promised to overlook federal law and NOT arrest and kick out the families of illegal aliens, nor will they supposedly punish American companies that hired illegal aliens in violation of federal labor laws.
When it comes to gay and lesbian heroes of the day - m who helped bring down the flight in Pennsylvania, who died in the line of duty when the first tower fell, and who was of the plane that crashed into the (there are many more) - we are told the law is the law and no exceptions can be made.
Please help to uphold diversity and the rights of all Americans. Please do not stand for any discrimination.
Thank you very much.
