Supreme Court asked to rule on state law that prohibits therapists from counseling against gender transition
The Supreme Court has been asked to rule on a Washington state law that bans therapists from encouraging patients against transitioning to a different gender.
On Monday, the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), a civil rights nonprofit firm, filed a petition to the Supreme Court for Brian Tingley, a licensed marriage and family therapist in the state who claims the law is unconstitutional because it prohibits certain private client-counselor conversations on sexual orientation and gender.
