Rebekah Schultheiss, legal counsel with Alliance Defending Freedom, discusses a case involving an Oregon mom, Jessica Bates, whose adoption application was denied because she would not affirm her support for her child's gender identity. The case is currently at the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. Schultheiss explains that the case has implications for parental rights, religious freedom, and freedom of speech. She warns that if the state can deny adoptive parents based on their beliefs, it sets a dangerous precedent for the state interfering with biological parents as well. The conversation also touches on the potential impact of the case on the public school system and the rights of parents to control what is taught to their children.
