YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe U.S. Supreme Court hears arguments today in a case about conversion therapy that could invalidate laws in half the states.
The practice, promoted by some conservative Christian groups, is banned for minors by half the states and staunchly opposed as harmful for minors by every major medical organization. But lawyers for a Colorado therapist plan to tell the justices that because she uses only talk therapy, banning the practice violates the U.S. Constitution’s free speech guarantee.
Last term, the high court upheld state laws that ban the use of hormones and other measures to help minors change their sex. Today, a different group of states contend that they ban conversion therapy because it doesn’t work and has proven harmful to minors.
