Mich. lawmakers vote to let adoption agencies refuse gay parents

Mich. lawmakers vote to let adoption agencies refuse gay parents
Michigan's Republican-led House approved a bill last week that would allow adoption agencies to refuse gay couples on the basis of religious beliefs. The bill would prevent state or local government from punishing adoption agencies exercising objections. "It's not just [a] license to discriminate. It's actually writing a check for that discrimination," said state Rep. Jeff Irwin, a Democrat.
