U.S. Rep. Robert Aderholt (R-Haleyville) wants to ensure there is proper oversight and transparency in the process for Americans who adopt a child.

Aderholt introduced the Adoption Deserves Oversight, Protection, and Transparency (ADOPT) Act, which protects adoptive families, children, and expectant mothers from exploitation by unlicensed adoption intermediaries.

The congressman was joined by original co-sponsors Rep. Danny K. Davis (D-Ill.), Rep. Laurel Lee (R-Fla.), and Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove (D-Calif.).

“Every child deserves the chance to find a loving, forever home in a safe and ethical way,” Aderholt said.

“For too long, unlicensed intermediaries have exploited vulnerable birth mothers and prospective adoptive parents.”
