(US) Maine Bill Authorizing New Birth Certificate for an Adopted Person and Removes Sealing of Original Birth Certificate

LD 1688 repeals the law authorizing the creation of a new birth certificate for an adopted person and it removes the provision that requires the sealing of the original birth certificate. The bill allows a person born in Maine to retain that person's original birth certificate, even if that person is adopted. This change does not affect a person born in a foreign country who is adopted in Maine.
For more information on the committee and the hearing see:
The bill may be read at:
