DESCRIPTION
This proposal adds to the list of persons from whom consent to the adoption of a child is not required, a parent whose rights to a child may be or have been terminated by law. Payments for the reasonable living expenses of the birth mother are added to the list of expenses of which an adoptive parent must make an accounting. This proposal also makes minor changes to current
adoption law, clarifies the content of existing language, and deletes repetitive language.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
