Our public hearing is on surrogacy. We are considering legislation proposed by Mr. Markosek from Allegheny County and Mr. Reber of Montgomery County. We are here to take testimony and to ask some questions. This is obviously a very multi-fueled and multiplexed subject. It is being debated in probably every State Legislature in America. As of a couple of weeks ago, there were at least 20 General Assemblies of the 50 in which legislation was -"• percolating. X am told by counsel that that has increased by several. We have what I consider to be an excellent group 1 i of men and women who will be testifying this morning and I t this afternoon. It will be incumbent upon all of us in the * Committee and on the staff and as participants to move'with some expedition. I would ask that all of you speak for • approximately ten minutes or less and then we will have questions for roughly ten minutes. Again, due to the fact that we have a significant number of people here, all of whom have gone out of their \ way. to visit with us, I do want to keep this process moving. I apologize for being late. Representative Reber did not get out of Philadelphia for almost an hour after his scheduled flight and I think that was emblematic of several other people including some of our staff people and some of our other members. I apologize for being dilatory but at this time, we will commence with William Pierce of the National Association — excuse me. National Adoption Center, Washington, D.C. Right before we do that, sir, I would like all of our members here to introduce themselves, and if we could start with Mike Dawida. REPRESENTATIVE DAWIDA: Mike Dawida, Allegheny County. REPRESENTATIVE REBER: Bob Reber, Montgomery County. \ REPRESENTATIVE BLAUM: Representative Kevin Blaura from the city of Wilkes-Barre. REPRESENTATIVE MCVERRY: Terry McVerry, Allegheny > County. REPRESENTATIVE ITKIN: Ivan Itkin, Pittsburgh. CHAIRMAN DEWEESE: Chief Counsel is Mike Edmiston and Special Counsel is John Connelly. With that as a '' preliminary remark. Bill Pierce* thank you very much for being with us. MR. FIERCE: Thank you, Chairman DeWeese and other members of the Judiciary Committee. The National Committee for Adoption appreciates being invited here today. Since you have a full day ahead of you, with many witnesses, I will try and condense a great deal of information that would take hours to talk with you about into my oral summary and provide you through the attachments of this testimony with additional information. I'll even skip the usual long-winded recitation of the accomplishments of our organization and merely mention that we represent some 130 agencies and 2,000 individual members in 45 States including 7 agency locations in Pennsyl­ vania, 3 of which are in the Pittsburgh area. Given today'8 witnesses on both sides of the surrogacy issue, there are some predictions I would like to make, some comments on one key reason why surrogacy is supposedly needed, some specific comments on House Bill 776 and some final recommendations. Let me begin by assuring you that although I will be making some harsh comments about some lawyers and others who are engaged in the surrogacy business, by no means am I lumping all lawyers together. The fact is that some of those working hardest to stop this inhumane industry are lawyers who know, like other professionals and most other people with just plain common sense, they know that this surrogacy business should never have gotten started and should be outlawed before it harms any more children, women, men, families, or social institutions. I predict you will hear the following sorts of claims today. First, you will hear as the Finding Section of 776 says that quote, due to the increased incidence of female infertility, many couples are turning to surrogate mothers to help them create families. Female and male infertility is increasing. But, the second part of the statement is where we differ. Surrogacy is no treatment for infertility anymore than adoption is. Secondly, there are a number of legal and appropriate alternatives for infertile couples to explore Including adoption. Third, even if there were no children to adopt, something I will comment on at length in a moment, we say that this would not justify Pennsylvania legalising an inherently inhumane practice like surrogacy. Desperation to achieve a good end such as parenting does not translate into social or legal endorsement for whatever means to that end may be required, whether those means include the supposedly high-tech intervention of surrogacy or the decidedly low-tech alternative of stealing someone else's child from a supermarket basket. I need to talk about statistics in -order to' address the bogus claim that since there are no babies to adopt, surrogacy should be legalized. The statistics come from the Adoption Factbook, one of our publications, and are for 1982, the last year for which there are any national adoption estimates. 4. i In Pennsylvania, in 1982, less than 1,000 healthy infants were adopted; 955 in all. That same year, the State had 161,909 live births and 64,060 abortions. That totals 225,999 pregnancies, not counting the miscarriages and still­ births. Or, looking at it in terms of so-called unwanted pregnancies, a phrase we object to because we know that every child is wanted by someone, there was about one adoption for ever 64 abortions. Checking comparable statistics from other States, and X have a table attached to our testimony, Pennsylvania did not do too badly in terms of adoptions. Some States do better, some do worse. Among the States that do worse are three States that have an interesting factor in common. Although we recognize there's no way one can prove that this factor is the sole reason for their relatively poor performance. The jurisdiction are D.C., Maryland »r*d Virginia — Maryland and Michigan. While Pennsylvania's adoption rate in 1982 was 3.06 percent of births to unmarried women, the other States' rates respectively were D.C., 1.84; Maryland, 2.04; Michigan, 1.68. The critical factor all three jurisdictions have in common is that they have laws which restrict the fees which adoptive parents can pay when they adopt a child. How might this restrict adoptions? In several ways, as my colleague, Jeff Rosenberg, pointed out in an item, quote, a law that would eliminate adoption, end quote, which appeared in the Pittsburgh Post Gazette on August 22, in that he and I discussed in a Family Law Reporter monograph, which is part of our attachments. I won't repeat those points now out of considera­ tion for our time, important as they are for domestic U.S. adoptions. X do need to mention that even adoptions from other countries may be hurt, and with them Pennsylvania residents by that law. In 1984, 434 children were brought in from other countries where counseling, room and board and transportation for biological or birth mothers is provided by the agency in the sending country and reimbursed by U.S. adoptive parents' fees and donations. That is the case for Korean adoptions which represent more than half of inter­ national adoptions by U.S. citizens, and probably at least half of foreign adoptions by Pennsylvania residents. While the Pennsylvania Supreme Court's ruling ostensibly affects only domestic adoption practice, it seems clear that if Pennsylvania law says it is not a good idea to pay for room, board, counseling, and transportation costs related to adoptions for a pregnant woman from Waynesburg, PA, who is placing her child for adoption.

  • House Committee on Judiciary & Civil Jurisprudence Hb 19
    PUBLIC COMMENTS HB 19 HOUSE COMMITTEE ON JUDICIARY & CIVIL JURISPRUDENCE Hearing Date: March 9, 2021 10:00 AM Michael Gerke SELF Missouri City, TX This bill rewards bad actors. That is, companies who fail to train and properly hire drivers get to be dismissed from a case against them. This is a disincentive to do things the right way. And those companies who do hiring, training and safety the proper way, are placed at an economic disadvantage to those who do not. Bad bill. Texans lose on this one. Jason Boorstein Self Dallas, TX I became very concerned after reading the text of this bill. The bill aims to hurt individuals driving on our roads. I am concerned about commercial vehicles from Texas, other States and Countries getting a pass in Texas if they hurt or kill someone. I am concerned that if this bill passes, companies have less incentive to investigate bad drivers, self police their company, train and discipline. Please consider tabling this bill so that we can investigate the real ramification to Texans. Thank you. Guy Choate Webb, Stokes & Sparks, LLP San Angelo, TX I speak in opposition to this Bill. Texas highways would be made less safe by protecting the companies that put profits over safety as they put unsafe trucks and drivers on the road. Large trucks are disproportionately responsible for carnage on Texas highways. Trucking companies need more scrutiny, not less. Trucks do not have to be dangerous and truck drivers do not have to cause crashes. Good companies do not have the type of crashes that routinely plague Texas highways.

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Doing It by Melvin Burgess Snowfall 's Damson Idris Teases the Season 4 Finale and a Tougher, OG Franklin Who's 'Stronger Every Week' Throughout Snowfall Season 4, a usually dominant Franklin Saint has been, well, less so. Never-ending conflicts with Skully and Manboy, as well as Franklin’s father Alton oversharing with an investigative reporter and Louie almost dying, left Franklin reeling. Throw in his chronic pain after being shot last season, protecting Leon at all costs and a less available Agent Teddy McDonald, aka Reed, and it seems like Franklin is perpetually a step or two behind. But Damson Idris, who stars as Franklin, says when the beloved crime drama unveils its Season 4 finale this Wednesday (FX, 10/9c), fans are going to see the man they used to know. In fact, if his disposal of Manboy and dismissal of Tanosse are any indication, this Franklin might be even icier. “Franklin gets stronger every week, and the turning point was Episode 8,” Idris sagely tells TVLine. That installment featured one of Franklin’s most explosive moments this season, which took place shortly after Irene’s interview with Alton went public. The scene also foreshadowed the take-charge Franklin that viewers will see in the season closer. Popular on TVLine. “That scene was special. It was written special,” Idris recalls. “The writers gave us a lot of monologues this season, and Dave Andron, our showrunner, made this one longer. But it wasn’t written the way it was performed. It was a lot more delicate.” “But I, personally as an actor, was frustrated that day,” the London native divulges.
