Equal Respect...Equal Dignity
Dear Mr. Zwick:
It would be unconscionable for our federal government to discriminate against
the survivors of gay and Lesbian 9/11 victims. It's bad enough that OUR
government devalues our lives in so many ways already; but now I'm hearing
that, in this time of supposed unity, we are still allowing bigotry and
mean-spiritedness to rule.
To do anything less for survivors simply because they happen to be gay sends
a clear signal of how far our elected officials will bend to please bigots.
It's time that ALL citizens be treated equally.
Yours Truly,
