yes, the news about scotus’s decision on reproductive choice is bad, but i wanted to be sure to highlight something that might have been drowned out that actually was good:
The U.S. Supreme Court cleared the way Monday for enforcement of a first-of-its-kind California law that bars psychological counseling aimed at turning gay minors straight.
The justices turned aside a legal challenge brought by supporters of so-called conversion or reparative therapy. Without comment, they let stand an August 2013 appeals court ruling that said the ban covered professional activities that are within the state’s authority to regulate and doesn’t violate the free speech rights of licensed counselors and patients seeking treatment.
this is really great news.
so yeah… we lost big today. but we won some too.
