Quote:
- Missouri will stop seizing foster children's Social Security benefits to cover foster care costs.
- The new law also bans marriage for anyone under 18 and voids non-disclosure agreements in child sex abuse cases.
- Previously, over 1,200 foster children's benefits, totaling over $10.6 million, were used to fund their care.
- The bill faced opposition from some Republican lawmakers regarding the child marriage ban.
Republicans showing themselves to be the Grand Old Pedos party as usual.
