Social › LGBT Adoption Rights
8>8 Personal answerYes, through any government run adoption. Private and religious organizations that people voluntarily chose to put their children up for adoption through should be allowed to cater to whatever demographic they prefer. |
Social › Abortion
8>8 Personal answerPro life, but feel that it is not an issue that the federal government has any ability to make laws on and should be regulated on a state by state basis.
