A Supreme Court case is challenging Colorado’s ban on conversion therapy for LGBTQ youth. Kaley Chiles, a Christian talk therapist, argues the law violates her First Amendment rights by restricting speech.
The justices, particularly the conservative majority, appeared skeptical of the state’s position, suggesting the ban may constitute viewpoint discrimination. The case could impact similar laws in over 20 states and reshape how speech is regulated in healthcare settings.
Conversion therapy is widely discredited by major medical organizations for being ineffective and harmful, especially to minors.
