Romney Blocked Birth Certificates for Gay Couples' Children
As governor of Massachusetts, Mitt Romney refused to change the state's birth certificate forms so that they read "Father or Second Parent" in deference to same sex couples. Instead, he required that each case of a birth to a same sex couple be reviewed individually, after having been approved by his lawyers.
From the Boston Globe:
"He rejected the Registry of Vital Records plan and insisted that his top legal staff individually review the circumstances of every birth to same-sex parents. Only after winning approval from Romney’s lawyers could hospital officials and town clerks across the state be permitted to cross out by hand the word “father’’ on individual birth certificates, and then write in “second parent,’’ in ink.
Divisions between the governor’s office and state bureaucrats over the language on the forms and details about the extraordinary effort by the Republican governor to prevent routine recording of births to gay parents are contained in state records obtained by the Globe this month.”
