Oregon mom Jessica Bates claims the Oregon Department of Human Services unconstitutionally discriminated against her religious beliefs. (Alliance Defending Freedom) A woman who claims she was barred from adopting children because of her religious beliefs on gender and sexuality filed a federal complaint against the Oregon Department of Human Services.Jessica Bates felt compelled to adopt based on her Christian faith but asserts her faith was used against her by the state of Oregon, according to a lawsuit filed on her behalf by Alliance Defending Freedom, a conservative legal advocacy group.

Under the Oregon Department of Human Services policy, the state adoption application requires potential parents to "respect, accept and support… the sexual orientation, gender identity, [and] gender expression of children." Oregon officials allegedly barred Bates from adopting children because she was unwilling to affirm transgender identity and procedures. (Alliance Defending Freedom) RELATED: Kansas approves bill to end gender-affirming care for transgender youthFOX News reported that the mother of five started applying to adopt a child from Oregon’s foster care system in 2022.

The ultrasound technician lost her husband in 2017 and wanted to adopt two siblings under age 9. She notified an ODHS official in the application process that while she would love any child in her care, she couldn’t agree to comply with the state's policies on sexuality and gender identity.Jessica Bates, who has five biological children, ages 10 to 17, claims her Christian faith moved her to adopt more. (Alliance Defending Freedom) Citing the lawsuit, FOX News noted that Oregon’s Resource and Adoptive Family (RAFT) training requires potential adoptive parents.

Philadelphia Mayoral Race: Chester activists push back against controversial comments on trash hauling

CHESTER, Pa. - Residents and environmental activists gathered Friday at a Chester park to denounce the controversial words spoken by Philadelphia mayoral candidate Jeff Brown during Tuesday night's debate. When asked about tons of garbage being trucked to Chester from Philadelphia for processing at a trash-to-energy plant, Brown said his concerns are with the people of Philadelphia. "Chester is Chester I’m worried about Philadelphia and how their lives are what would come first is what would be best for Philadelphia," Brown said from behind a podium on Tuesday. That comment rattled the cage of Chester residents who say they are fed up with the quality of life in the beleaguered river town of 33,000 on the banks of the Delaware River.Chester residents speak out after a question and answer of where Philly's trash ends up during the mayoral debate raises eyebrows and continues to be a topic of sharp conversation."You are a pimp, and we will not be prostituted for pollution and that goes for all the candidates in Philadelphia," Zulene Mayfield said on Friday.The City of Chester is paid $5M yearly by Covanta to process 3,500 tons of waste every day. According to a Covanta spokesperson, a study shows that the plant does not pose a health risk of any kind o people living nearby and the plant operates below its federally regulated standards. Still, activists argue the plant is a source of asthma in children and has driven down property values.

North Korea says it tested new solid-fuel long-range missile for first time

SEOUL, South Korea - North Korea said Friday it flight-tested a solid-fuel intercontinental ballistic missile for the first time, a possible breakthrough in its efforts to acquire a more powerful, harder-to-detect weapon targeting the continental United States.North Korea’s official Korean Central News Agency issued the report a day after the country’s neighbors detected a launch of a long-range missile from near Pyongyang, which extended a run of weapons displays involving more than 100 missiles fired into the sea since the start of 2022.Thursday’s test did not appear to demonstrate the weapon’s full capacity, and it remains unclear how far North Korea has come in mastering technologies to ensure the warhead would withstand atmospheric reentry and accurately strike targets. Still, analysts said the test was likely a meaningful advance in North Korea’s goal to build a nuclear arsenal that could directly threaten the United States.Later Friday, the U.S.
