Georgia Alliance for Adoptee Rights on February 7, 2023

Senator Randy Robertson (R – Catula)

The Georgia Assembly is in session and Senate Bill (SB) 64 is active! 

SB64 will restore a right that has been restricted since 1961: the right for all Georgia-born adult adoptees to obtain their own original birth certificate upon request. Georgia Alliance for Adoptee Rights has worked with bill author, Jim Outman, and the bill sponsor, Senator Randy Robertson (R-Cataula) to assure a “clean” and unrestricted bill.

If you are a Georgia-born adoptee or birth parent, be sure that you sign up for our e-mail list to receive action notices and the latest news regarding the bill.
