Slovenians reject gay adoption law in referendum

LJUBLJANA, Slovenia — Slovenians rejected in a national referendum on Sunday a new family law that included a highly contested clause that would allow same-sex couples to adopt children in some cases.

The law drafted by Slovenia's former center-left government – and opposed by conservatives close to the Catholic Church – would have allowed gay couples to adopt the biological children of their partners. It did not allow the adoption of children from a third party.

[The Lawspeaker]

The Slovenian people have decided. And I think that it was a wiser decision then joining the EU or the Eurozone.
