The group has been successful in getting several states in the United States to approve legislation to open sealed records, for example in Oregon by Ballot Measure 58 . They have members throughout the United States, Canada and the world. The name is a reference to the fact that most adopted children were born Illegitimate , hence are literally ''bastards''. The term ''bastard'' is employed both for shock value, and in an effort to reclaim the term for common usage (as was done by the organization Queer Nation with the word '' Queer ''). EXTERNAL LINK |
