Please protect the religious freedom of our faith-based agencies and do not require them to violate either their religious beliefs or their consciences to continue their good work.

Forcing agencies to place children with same-sex couples is a violation of the rights of the child. Nobody has a "right" to adopt children. We have the obligation to place children into stable, loving marriages between one man and one woman. A child has a right to a mother and a father.

Thank you for considering my comments.
