Foster Care

Ray talks with Patrick Murphy about a bill that will speed up the process of moving children from foster care to adoption while limiting some parental rights. The bill passed in the House yesterday, and a similar bill is pending in the Senate. Murphy is the Public Guardian for Cook County, IL and is author of the forthcoming Wasted: the Failure of Child Welfare and the Plight of America (Ivan R. Dee Publishers).
