Why Are Republicans Obsessed With Controlling Our Sex Lives?

From Pink News:
A Republican-backed bill in the state of Illinois would ban the issuing of birth certificates to children without a listed father.
The legislation, submitted by Republicans John Cavaletto and Keith Wheeler, takes the unprecedented step of refusing to recognize that a child has actually been born, unless they have two biological parents listed.
The proposals could be potentially devastating in cases where paternity is unknown, or a child is born in any other ‘non-traditional’ setting.
 It is unclear how much of a chilling effect it could have on human rights – given it would be effectively creating a class of ‘un-persons’ who aren’t officially even alive, which is legally unprecedented.
The bill states: “If the unmarried mother cannot or refuses to name the child’s father, either a father must be conclusively established by DNA evidence or, within 30 days after birth, another family member who will financially provide for the child must be named, in court, on the birth certificate.
“Absent DNA evidence or a family member’s name, a birth certificate will not be issued and the mother will be ineligible for financial aid from the State for support of the child.”
It adds: “A family that does not comply with the Vital Records Act provision concerning birth certificates of unmarried mothers shall be ineligible for aid for support of the child. Effective immediately.”
The bill makes exceptions for some children born to single mothers by IVF – but only if they waive all benefit entitlements.

It's amusing how the party that repeatedly spews that it wants less government involvement with peoples lives, are constantly trying to do so legislatively and at great cost to it's tax payers.
This seemingly simple plan would cost Illinois tax payers hundreds of millions of dollars to enforce and oversee.
