SUPPORT NEW HAMPSHIRE SB-335

ON THE VERGE OF OPEN RECORDS FOR ADULT ADOPTEES IN NEW HAMPSHIRE!!!!

SB 335, an unconditional "equal access" bill, passed the House committee with a majority (9/3) vote last week. The full House will vote on the bill Thursday, April 29th. If passed, the bill will provide unconditional access to original birth certificates for adult adoptees born in New Hampshire. The bill currently contains a contact preference form for birth parents to express their desires about contact. THIS IS THE FINAL VOTING STEP FOR THIS BILL, AND IT IS EXTREMELY URGENT THAT THE NEW HAMPSHIRE REPRESENTATIVES HEAR FROM YOU!!!

SB 335 passed the NH Senate with a close 12/11 vote, passed the House Children & Family Law Committee with a decent majority of 9/3 and is now heading to the House floor. There are NO amendments attached that would restrict adoptee rights! We now need to write and reinforce our support for passage of the bill.

We need to remind the Representatives that New Hampshire's sealed records laws were not a promise of anonymity to birthparents, since the original birth certificate is not sealed at relinquishment, but only upon finalization of adoption. If the relinquished child is never legally adopted, he or she retains the original birth certificate as the legal record of birth.

PLEASE E-MAIL and WRITE ALL members of the New Hampshire House TODAY and urge them to VOTE YES to SB335. (Please see contact information below).

The text of the bill can be read at: http://www.gencourt.state.nh.us/legislation/2004/SB0335.html
