Promised Secrecy From Your Child?

Those trying to kill HB770/SB364 are saying that birth parents were promised secrecy from their child. We need evidence that such "promises" were never made but the requirements of such secrecy were actually forced on birth parents who had no alternative at the time of the adoption. (Such abuse continues to happen in Texas.)

If you are a birth parent please include this in your letters to your Texas State Representative supporting HB770 and your State Senator supporting SB364. Include comments as appropriate about the promises you received at the time of the relinquishment of your birth child. What were you promised and what was forced upon you?

We are making significant progress! With enough letters written, and legislators well educated about the truth of the issues surrounding adoption, we will win!

While it certainly is not required, if you can please share your letters with Txcare sending copies to the locations indicated at www.txcare.org/2005. That will help us know what they are receiving and to coordinate lobbying efforts.

Please forward this email to any friends you may have who may know anyone with connections to adoption in Texas and/or anyone else who may support our efforts to restore adoption traid member rights.
