The Supreme Court just gutted conversion therapy bans across America 8 to 1. The court just gave the green light to a practice the United Nations calls torture.
Studies show kids who go through conversion therapy are more than twice as likely to attempt suicide. Every major medical association opposes it. Science is clear.
But the court’s conservative supermajority decided a therapist’s “free speech” matters more than a child’s life. This isn’t just about Colorado. More than 20 states had bans. Most of them are now in jeopardy.
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson (the lone dissenter) warned this ruling will cause “grave harm to Americans’ health and wellbeing.” She read her dissent from the bench. That’s how serious this is.
