Howard v. Arkansas : ウィキペディア英語版 | Howard v. Arkansas
''Howard v. Arkansas'', 367 Ark. 55, 238 S.W.3d 1 (2006), is a decision in the Arkansas Supreme Court which unanimously upheld a lower court decision that overturned a state policy banning gay adults and people living in households with gay adults from being foster parents. ==Background==
In 1999, Arkansas's Child Welfare Agency Review Board established a policy that "no person may serve as a foster parent if any adult member of that person's household is a homosexual." 〔, ("Easy Cases, Bad Law" ), April 21, 2005.〕 The ACLU then filed a lawsuit in Little Rock on behalf William Wagner, Matthew Lee Howard, and Anne Shelley, three adults who wanted to serve as foster parents but were prevented from doing so by the regulation in question.〔, ("Advocacy & Issues" ), 2009.〕 Howard was a teacher who was already raising two children with his same-sex partner of nineteen years, Shelley was a lesbian who wanted to serve as a foster parent, and Wagner was a married heterosexual who was disqualified from serving as a foster parent because his gay son sometimes lived at home.〔, ("Howard v. Arkansas - Case Background" ), October 4, 2004.〕
