Lgbtq Adoption Rights

 P.S. v. Spain

Mexico

Mexico's Supreme Court upheld the law allowing married same-sex couples to adopt children in its second landmark gay rights decision this month. The court, threw out a challenge led by the federal government to the part of the law approving gay marriage, but only ruled on Monday -- after more than a week of deliberations -- on the legislation's more controversial adoption provisions. Mexico City, the first Latin American capital to extend to same-sex couples the same marriage and adoption rights as heterosexuals.

Taiwan

In May 2019, Taiwan’s lawmakers approved a same-sex marriage bill, making the self-ruled island the first place in Asia to do so. But the law, passed through a bill separate from Taiwan’s Civil Code, does not provide the same access to adoption, assisted reproduction, or transnational marriage rights as heterosexual couples. To secure full recognition for LGBTQ families, local rights groups and legislators are still advocating for legislative changes.
