15:38Now PlayingOn July 15th, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz signed an executive order effectively banning conversion therapy to minors. Many on the religious right have expressed their outrage at this decision. Minnesota Family Council (MFC) CEO, John Helmberger, stated that the Governor’s actions would hurt sufferers seeking to get the care. According to a Trevor Project survey from 2020, 58% of LGBT youth in the US had someone try to convince them to change their gender identity or sexuality. In a 2009 report from the American Psychological Association, multiple cited studies have shown that conversion therapy is not an evidence-based practice. It can result in an increased risk of substance abuse and mood disorders. According to the official press release, the executive order will have various government agencies work with health care companies to ensure they do not cover nor fund conversion therapy and will open investigations on any health care providers engaged in conversion therapy in any way.
