Bill > HB24

This bill, the Alabama Child Placing Agency Inclusion Act, prohibits the state from discriminating against child care service providers based on their religious beliefs. It ensures that religious organizations can continue to provide child placement services while allowing them to refuse placements that conflict with their sincerely held religious beliefs, as long as alternative placements are available. The bill also provides civil remedies for child placing agencies that are injured by violations of the law, including protections under the First Amendment and the Alabama Religious Freedom Amendment.
