Arkansas voters have approved a ban that states unmarried couples who are living together can not adopt or be foster parents. The particular bill was introduced following a state Supreme Court ruling last year.
In 1999 Arkansas's Child Welfare Agency Review Board established a policy that banned gay men and women from serving as foster parents but the Supreme Court ruled against it after a seven-year battle with the ACLU.
Although the title of the measure is "unmarried couples" the agenda clearly is aimed at keeping gay men and women "from becoming foster or adoptive parents".
