U.S. Supreme Court Rejects Challenge to Decision Protecting Children Born to Same-Sex Couples

Today, the United States Supreme Court denied review in a custody dispute involving a non-biological lesbian mother whose former partner, the child’s biological mother, was seeking to strip her of any parental rights.

“I am so grateful that my relationship with my six-year-old daughter is legally protected,” said Charisma. “I love my daughter dearly, and I am relieved the courts have recognized that children born to same-sex couples deserve the emotional, financial, and physical support of both of their parents, regardless of the parents’ gender or sexual orientation.”
