The petition


Earlier this year, Ohio House Bill 7 (introduced back in 20 February 2007) would have allowed Ohio adoptees unlimited access to their birth information and their orginal birth certificates upon their request. Representative Tom Brinkman Jr. of Ohio's 34th District created this bill to help Ohio adoptees who are searching for their birth records.


Congress has since 30 April changed the legal language of the bill. They have deleted access of original birth certificates (OBC) from the bill. Now, the Ohio Senate will take testimony from both sides before they vote it into law.

Speak out against this travesty of justice. Do not let this happen! Tell them to keep access to the OBC's in the bill as an ADDENDUM to the current legislation. I did the research, and it is possible to do that.

Please, help OH adoptees get access into their family's history. Help support Ohio House Bill 7 and convince those politicians in Columbus to do the right thing. The current adoption laws are unfair. This edited legislation by Brinkman will still help right some of the wrongs.

Thank you for reading and signing this petition. Your online signature does make a difference. It is your 1st Amendment right to speak out when something is not right. Take the opportunity to make your voice heard. Whether you believe it or not, it really does matter.

Many Blessings, BGJR.
