Issued June 13, 2004
URGE THE NEVADA STATE LEGISLATURE
CHILDREN, YOUTH AND FAMILIES COMMITTEE
TO DRAFT 2005 LEGISLATION ADDRESSING
ADULT ADOPTEE ACCESS TO BIRTH AND ADOPTION RECORDS
On Thursday, June 17th, 2004 Nevada Open and Coalition Partners will come before the Nevada State Legislature's Interim Standing Committee on Children, Youth and Families. Senator Maggie Carlton, chair of the Subcommittee on Adoption, presented her Action Report to the committee on April 22nd, wherein she recommended adult adoptee access to their original birth certificate. During the public testimony portion, we will request the committee to support ONLY unrestricted access to the documents housed at Vital Records and the court file, as put forward in the 2003 Session in Senate Bill 267.
