In some states, Catholic Charities was doing adoption/foster care BEFORE the state/federal government got involved, just as Father Damien de Veuster did for the Lepers here in Hawaii BEFORE the Hawaiian Monarchy went to see what he was doing in Molokai. The new federal bills in House (STARK-D-CA) HR 1681 (currently with 83 co-sponsors or almost 1/4 of the House) and Senate (Gillibrand-D-NY) S. 1770 just mimic what happened in Massachusetts (2006), DC (2010), and Illinois (just now transferring all cases) BTW, the day after Gillibrand introduced, I had a whole lot of energy and started: http://saintdamienadvocates.org
That specifically is for fighting all this (I used to be a foster family agency social worker, worked a few adoption cases too) as I see this as pretty massive and needing ‘Big Motion.’ Already sent letters out to speak at various places, did first ‘2 minute talk’ on Oahu over this (people were aghast, had no idea), here in Hawaii, and sent letters out nationwide also on doing more about this. It’s a fight. Take Care!

I believe Gillibrand is up for reelection again next year, so let’s all do what we can to make sure she loses.
Talk and email everyone you know, write letters to editors about this issue, and here are a few other issues that might encourage many voters to vote against her:
Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, has a 100% rating from NARAL and Planned Parenthood, and is such a strong abortion proponent that she even voted No on restricting UN funding for population control policies, which would mean your tax dollars would pay for abortions in foreign countries.
Sen. Gillibrand voted 98% with her Party, which obviously includes the massive spending the Democratic Party added to the debt.
Gillibrand was for our Second Amendment rights as congresswoman in her relatively conservative district, BUT weak on our Second Amendment rights after she became U.S. Senator and was told publicly to change her position by Sen. Schumer.
