United States SB204

Congress finds the following: [...] the natural right of parents to care for their children [...] (5) The right encompasses the authority of parents to direct the upbringing, education, and health care of their children according to the dictates of their conscience, to direct the upbringing, education, and health care of their children in their own beliefs and religion, and to be the primary decision maker for their child until the child reaches adulthood.

Government shall not substantially burden the fundamental right of parents to direct the upbringing, education, and health care of their children without demonstrating that the infringement is required by a compelling governmental interest of the highest order as applied to the parent and the child and is the least restrictive means of furthering that compelling governmental interest. The fundamental rights protected include, without limitation, the following rights and responsibilities: (A) To direct the education of the child. (B) To direct the moral or religious up bringing of the child. (C) To access and review all medical records of the child and to make and consent to all physical and mental health care decisions for the child.
