EXCERPT:
Republican House lawmakers have introduced legislation to stop sexual predators from obtaining children through the use of surrogacy, after a homosexual registered sex offender purchased a baby boy in Pennsylvania.
Last year, LifeSiteNews covered the case of Brandon Mitchell, a Tier 1 sex offender in Pennsylvania, convicted of “sexual abuse of children” and “possession of child pornography.” A high school chemistry teacher at the time, Mitchell was arrested in 2016 for numerous “sexually explicit solicitations and conversations” with a 16-year-old student after he was found to have sent 20 explicit photos and a sexually explicit video of himself.
Despite this record, Mitchell and his “husband” Logan Riley shared a video of them celebrating holidays with the surrogate-born boy through the first year of his life.
Now, Rep. Rep. Scott Perry (R-PA) has introduced HR 9131, the Protecting Kids From Creeps Act, which punishes surrogacy agencies that fail to conduct background checks on clients; and HR 9132, the Preventing International Surrogacy Exploitation Act, which forbids foreign nationals from using American-based surrogacy services.
“These bills put children first (which should always be the case, and some seem to be forgetting that), and help prevent predators / foreign actors from obtaining children in our Nation for personal gain, profit, or other nefarious reasons,” Perry declared.
