NY Lawmakers Pass Ban On Conversion Therapy

New York is set to join 14 other states, plus Washington, DC in banning conversion therapy.  State lawmakers have passed a bill prohibiting mental health professionals from trying to change a teenager's sexual orientation or gender orientation.  Another bill makes gender identity a protected class under state law.  Governor Andrew Cuomo says he'll sign both bills, calling LGBTQ conversion therapy fraudulent and saying it has done a lot of harm to young people.
