But there are older children in foster homes, and perhaps there are not enough parents wanting to adopt older children. It would be nice to have hard data on this. c-kingsley, you may be right about that figure, and it is certainly true that there are many times more adoptive couples in the US than there are babies available to be adopted.

Does anyone know a source for this or can disprove it? If it's true, if it's even close to being true, is this bill just a solution in search of a problem?
