Family Research Council
The Family Research Council (FRC) is an American conservative Christian group and lobbying organization formed in the United States in 1981 by James Dobson. It was incorporated in 1983. In the late 1980s, the FRC officially became a division of Dobson's main organization, Focus on the Family, but after an administrative separation, the FRC became an independent entity in 1992. Tony Perkins is the current president.
The FRC promotes what it considers to be traditional family values, by advocating and lobbying for socially conservative policies. It opposes and lobbies against LGBT rights (such as same-sex marriage and LGBT adoption), abortion, divorce, embryonic stem-cell research and pornography. The FRC is affiliated with a 501(c)(4) lobbying PAC known as FRC Action. In 2010, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) classified the FRC as an anti-gay hate group, a designation which generated some controversy.
==History==
The Council was incorporated as a nonprofit organization in 1983. James Dobson, Armand Nicholi, Jr., and George Rekers were some of its founding board members.〔 In 1988, following financial difficulties, the FRC was incorporated into Focus on the Family, and Gary Bauer joined the organization as president. The FRC remained under the Focus on the Family umbrella until 1992,〔 when it separated out of concern for Focus' tax-exempt status. Tony Perkins joined the FRC as its president in 2003.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.frc.org/get.cfm?i=by03h27 )〕
