What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "Adoption Information Act," proposes to amend title V of the Social Security Act. It would require family planning service projects and programs to provide specific information to individuals seeking medical or abortion services. Under this act, these programs must provide a pamphlet containing a comprehensive list of local adoption centers, including their addresses and telephone numbers. The bill also mandates that the person be given an opportunity to read this pamphlet. The Secretary is responsible for preparing and updating these pamphlets annually.
