Tuesday, March 12, 2002 9:25 AM 9/11 Fund to Discriminate Against Gays I am contacting you because I was very upset to hear that your intention is to omit the partners of gays and lesbians from access to this fund. I hope it is not true, I have not taken time to verify it, but I will. I am a tax payer and contribute to the strength of this nation just like everyone else. I feel like this is taxation without representation, I pay my taxes but I do not have access to the programs and the relief that other Americans do. Our government officials stood in front of the country and said that we must demonstrate tolerance when coming in contact with members of the Muslim community, the very group charged with committing this act against our country. When it comes to gays a lesbians, the government officials are very comfortable telling people we are not to be accepted or tolerated. Several member of the gay and lesbian were identified as heroes in this tragedy, is this how you intend to honor them?
