"People's jaws drop in surprise when they hear that ACLU-NJ opposes
passage of New Jersey's Adoptees' Birthright Bill because the
organization known for defending those whose rights have been abrogated
is, in this case, taking an unexpected viewpoint. ACLU-NJ prioritizes

for adoption over the (adult) child's right to her or his original birth
certificate.
Why? The "right to privacy" for relinquishing parents intended them to be free from

copies of the court decree including names of the child and birth
parent. They have also been allowed by law to keep the child's birth
name without permission from the original parent."
