Protecting Kids from Creeps Act
To prohibit surrogacy agencies from facilitating surrogacy contracts with sex offenders, and for other purposes.
HB9131, also known as the "Protecting Kids from Creeps Act," aims to prevent surrogacy agencies from entering into surrogacy contracts with individuals who have been convicted of sex offenses. This bill is designed to safeguard children by ensuring that they are not placed in potentially harmful situations with individuals with a history of such crimes.
The proposed law would directly affect surrogacy agencies and prospective parents by requiring these agencies to conduct thorough background checks on all parties involved in surrogacy arrangements. It would ensure that sex offenders are not able to participate in surrogacy agreements, thereby protecting children from possible harm.
As of June 3, 2026, HB9131 has just been introduced in the House and referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary. The bill is currently at the initial stages of the legislative process, and it has not yet been scheduled for any committee hearings or votes.
