Make ALL amended birth certificates illegal.

Amended birth certificates are illegal and should be thrown out! End the stigma of adoption by making the original birth certificate the LEGAL BIRTH CERTIFICATE! By making an amended birth certificates Minnesota is committing a crime and a heinous human rights violation. ALL adopted people of Minnesota, past and present, have the universal right to their original birth certificate!

Why is this important?

I am an adoptee of Minnesota who has an amended birth certificate. This is not right. I should be able to have my original birth certificate just like ever other citizen. Amended birth certificates are a legal fiction that should be ended.
