2nd Parent Adoption Bill

Michigan Rep. Jeff Irwin and Senator Rebekah Warren will be introducing the Second Parent Adoption bill this session. It is the same bill that was introduced by Rep. Smith last session. A press conference about this bill will be held on Monday, Feb. 14 in Ann Arbor at 2:30 PM. The exact location is still being finalized.

We need a couple of families who either have successfully had a second a parent adoption or who would like to see this law changed to allow for second parent adoption, to attend the press conference.

There will be an opportunity for 1-2 families to share their story with the media and we will take as many people as would like to be there to stand next to Rep. Irwin and Sen. Warren during the Press Conference.

Anyone interested in participating or with questions should email- Lonnie Scott, Lscott@house.mi.gov or call 517-373-2577, as soon as possible.
