Poland’s Confederation party has submitted legislation to parliament explicitly prohibiting the adoption of children by same-sex couples \u2014 a move prompted by Warsaw and Wroc\u0142aw beginning to transcribe foreign same-sex marriages into the civil registry following European and domestic court orders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Confederation leader Krzysztof Bosak announced the bill Wednesday, noting: “Few people realise that, under current Polish law, there is no such prohibition. Until now, it hasn’t been necessary, as the matter was self-evident. Now, it no longer is.” The bill specifies that a person may not adopt a child if they are married under foreign law to a person of the same sex, in any other similar form of registered same-sex union, or if they are cohabiting with a same-sex partner \u2014 including stepchild adoption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bosak noted that all parties in Prime Minister Tusk’s ruling coalition apart from The Left have expressed opposition to same-sex adoption. “So there shouldn’t be a problem gathering a majority, right?” he asked. Tusk himself has stated clearly that registering foreign same-sex marriages “is in no way a path to adoption.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n
State polling agency CBOS found in 2024 that only 23% of Poles support same-sex adoption rights, while 70% are opposed. The bill codifies in explicit law what has until now been assumed \u2014 and what the step-by-step judicial imposition of same-sex marriage recognition is rapidly making necessary to state clearly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
