Colorado counters Supreme Court with law allowing damages for 'conversion therapy'

Colorado Gov. Jared Polis has taken a bold step against the recent U.S. Supreme Court decision that upheld controversial "conversion therapy" by signing a bill permitting patients to sue for damages related to such practices. Polis also issued an executive order to prevent state funds from supporting this type of counseling, reflecting a strong stance against these therapies deemed harmful by many in the mental health community. This move underscores the ongoing national debate over the ethics and legality of conversion therapy, highlighting the state's commitment to protecting the well-being of its residents.
