Ariz. House: Married pairs are preferred to adopt kids
Saying children do better in a home with a mother and a father, the state House voted Monday to give married couples preference when placing children for adoption.
HB 2148 would overrule the existing practice of the Department of Economic Security that makes the "best interests of the child" the primary factor when considering placing a child for adoption. Instead, it would require the DES and agencies that contract with the state to give "primary consideration to placement with a married couple."
