Page 1 of 3 PENN LIVE r Effort to broaden adoptees’ rights to get birth information gets Pennsylvania Senate committee’s approval plfile capitol dome A bill to expand adult adoptees’ ability to get access to their original birth records moved through a Senate committee Tuesday, as part of a push by advocates to put legislation on the governor’s desk this year. (The Patriot-News, file) Charles Thompson [email protected] By Charles Thompson [email protected] I I Email the author Follow on Twitter I on September 16, 2014 at 4:49 PM A compromise effort to give adopted persons dramatically expanded rights to seek the identity of their birth parents passed through state Senate’s Aging and Youth Committee Tuesday on a 9-2 vote. Supporters are making a concerted effort to get the bill to Gov. Tom Corbett’s desk before the end of the 2013- 14 legislative session - scheduled to end next month - but acknowledged that will take some further negotiation. The change would only affect those people involved in so-called “closed adoptions,” estimated at about S percent of the 30,000 adoptions processed each year in Pennsylvania. Under current law, birth records in those cases are generally not available without the natural parents’ consent. Prime sponsor Rep. Kerry Benninghoff’s bill, which passed the state House last year, would flip control of that dialogue around, by letting adoptees born in Pennsylvania request their birth records by right once they’ve reached the age of 19.
