We've heard the voices of LGBTQ Kentuckians and we stand with them. Today I was proud to sign an executive order banning dangerous conversion “therapy” on our kids. No child, regardless of their sexuality, should be subjected to harm.

#Breaking! The Utah Legislature is protecting youth from #conversiontherapy. Utah banned this deadly practice administratively in 2020 & the Legislature is now cementing that protection into state law. Congratulations to @EqualityUtah & all who worked on this critical bill.

In Tingley v. Ferguson, we supported WA statute that banned licensed therapists from conversion therapy for minors.
In both cases, 1A is asserted to challenge government action that protects disadvantaged, vulnerable individuals.
