U.S. Rep. Pete Stark. D-Calif., has introduced the Every Child Deserves a Family Act (H.R. 3827), which opens the door for gay adoption. Stark cited the number of kids in foster care as a reason for allowing homosexual and unmarried couples to adopt.
Kris Mineau, president of the Massachusetts Family Institute, said H.R. 3827 would restrict federal funds from states that preserve adoption or foster programs for married moms and dads.
"Certainly, we in Massachusetts, which has the dubious distinction of having the longest tenure of same-sex marriage, feel the pain of forcing homosexual adoption upon the citizens," he said. "The Catholic Church was forced to close their adoption agency because they could not theologically allow children to be adopted by homosexuals."
