On the recordNovember 13, 1997
I think today is a great day for our Nation's foster and adoptive children. Today is the day that Congress improves our foster care laws and eases the pathway for adoption.

In 1980 Congress enacted the Adoption Assistance and Child Welfare Act, which sought to improve the foster care system.
