The battle by homosexuals to legally adopt children has opened on another front in Florida.
Democratic State Senator Nan Rich, co-chair of the Senate Children, Families and Elder Affairs Committee, has filed a bill to repeal the 1977 law that bans homosexual adoption and a second bill to give judges the authority to determine adoptions based exclusively on what she calls the best interests the children. Matt Barber of Liberty Counsel disagrees with the measures. "The actions here by Senator Nan Rich are clearly without merit, and she has the audacity to say that she is considering what is in the best interest of children. Well that defies logic, reason, and science," he contends. "Frankly the studies have shown clearly that it is in the best interest of children to have a mother and a father." Barber believes he has discovered the Rich's true intentions. "What she and her homosexual activist supporters are considering is what is in the best interest of homosexual activists," he adds. "They are more concerned with their own selfish desires because they want to adopt children." Liberty Counsel has a role in a case winding through the courts that would overturn the law.
