Plain-English Summary

This bill would establish federal standards for adoption agencies to maintain "good standing" status, likely affecting which agencies can receive government funding or tax benefits and how they operate. The measure would impact families seeking to adopt, adoption agencies themselves, and potentially the children in the adoption system by setting requirements these agencies must meet to remain eligible for federal support.
