We Did It!
key points
- Establish a $6,000 Adoption Tax Credit for five years with no income cap
- Require private adoption agencies to cap fees and establish trust accounts
- Partner with non-profit adoption organizations to facilitate pre-approval for families, resulting in shorter wait time for placement, especially crucial for abandoned babies
- Prevent trafficking and smuggling of children, by requiring all adoptions to go through a certified, approved agency.
Why it's needed
Adoption is one of the best, most pro-life solutions, yet continues to be overlooked. As it stands, the adoption process is too rigorous, expensive and lacks the transparency to be a viable option.

A special thank you to Van Phillips. Not only has he been an invaluable asset to my re-election campaign, Van was instrumental in researching and drafting this legislation.
