A direct shot against the bow for all Catholic adoption agencies. Yet another reason to reject all federal funding. With shekels come shackles.
The inevitable conclusion of this is that the Federal Government will end up involved in another fuction it is not suited for, and less children will end up finding loving homes. Homosexuals make up 2% of the population. A tiny percentage of all homosexuals choose monogamous relationships and want to adopt, but their "rights" trump everything.
According to her bio on Wiki, she's Roman Catholic herself. Go figure.
The article says the Catholic agencies have already stepped back from running child placement services because they have been forced into dealing with LGBT couples.
The real kicker in this article is that a reivew of 59 studies was recently published that contradicts the proposed leglislation. The conclusion of the review was that broad statements equating the rearing of children in gay/lesbian households to the rearing of children in straight households cannot be supported. Gillibrand runs counter to the recent research (and centuries of common sense) in favor of an ideology that promotes gay/lesbian activiism.
Gillibrand is Roman Catholic herself, at least per her bio on Wikipedia.
Amen.
