JUST IN: The Supreme Court has ruled against a law banning “conversion therapy” for LGBTQ+ kids in Colorado. Justice Neil Gorsuch, writing for the court, said the law “censors speech based on viewpoint.” The First Amendment, he wrote, “stands as a shield against any effort to enforce orthodoxy in thought or speech in this country.” In a solo dissent, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wrote that states should be free to regulate health care, even if that means incidental restrictions on speech. The decision, Jackson wrote, “opens a dangerous can of worms” that “threatens to impair states’ ability to regulate the provision of medical care in any respect.” Read the full story at the link in our bio. 📝: Lindsay Whitehurst, Associated Press #SCOTUS #Colorado #LGTBQ #conversiontherapy
