Excerpt from Grandparent´s Visitation Rights: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Separation of Powers of the Committee on the Judiciary, United States Senate, Ninety-Eighth Congress, First Session on S. Con, Res, 40 November 15, 1983 The subcommittee met, pursuant to call, at 10:40 a.m., in room SD-628 of the Dirksen Senate Office Building, Hon. John P. East (chairman of the subcommittee) presiding. Staff present: Thomas A. Bovard, general counsel, and Scott L. Wilkinson. Jr., chief clerk. Opening Statement of Senator John P. East Senator East. I would like to convene, please, this hearing of the Subcommittee on Separation of Powers so that we might promptly take testimony this morning regarding Senate Concurrent Resolution 40. I am going to be very brief in my comments, because of the time constrictions under which we operate. I would like to say that I think the subject matter is very important: The question of grandparents´ visitation rights in the case of the contemporary broken home. I believe that grandparents are among the greatest victims of the disintegration of the American nuclear family. Under the new morality, the divorce rate has approached nearly 50 percent at times. Of course, other problems such as widowhood can create visitation rights problems for grandparents. Probably the single greatest contributing factor is the divorce rate, and though we are justifiably solicitous of the problems of the children with regard to proper custody and care, and of the rights of the respective parents as regards visitation, we have neglected the rights of affected grandparents. And I am sure they feel badly victimized by it. The purpose of this hearing is to listen to some testimony pertinent to this problem. What the U.S. Senate can do, I do not know, but I certainly come to this task of the hearing with a sympathetic ear and a deep and profound interest. I can sympathize with them. I am not yet a grandparent, but I hope I will be, and I know at some point I would be deeply and profoundly hurt and disappointed if I learned I could not visit my grandchildren. This relationship is one of the great joys of the nuclear family and of the process of aging. It is a very legitimate issue, and I am happy that the Subcommittee on Separation of Powers can contribute in some small way to its solution. So I wish to open on that positive, constructive note.
