A Texas bill would give state-funded adoption agencies the right to discriminate against LGBT parents and religious minorities. The bill, HB 3859, would allow Texas’ adoption and foster care agencies to claim religious objection to certain groups, without fear of losing state funding. The bill, touted by supporters as a victory for religious freedom, could restrict adoption and fostering opportunity for LGBT, single, or non-Christian parents, and could allow child welfare services to send foster children to anti-gay “conversion therapy."
