Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) has confirmed to the Washington Blade that at some point in the future she will introduce legislation that, if enacted, would make it illegal to discriminate against gay couples on the basis of their sexuality when they come to adopt a child.
However, the Senator, who has been an outspoken advocate for such LGBT rights causes as the repeal of DADT and the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), declined to say when she'd make the legislation public and is also keeping the exact nature of the bill under wraps for now.
Asked by the Washington Blade whether she'd introduce the legislation, Gillibrand replied, "Yes."
