Colorado Lawmakers Extend Suit Window for Conversion Therapy Victims: A New Path to Justice
Despite the Supreme Courts block on enforcing Colorados ban on conversion therapy, the state House has passed a bill allowing those harmed by it to sue therapists with no time limit on claims. This move, similar to a 2021 law extending deadlines for child sexual abuse cases, provides victims with a longer opportunity to seek justice. The bills sponsor, a state rep and mother of a trans child, aims to give individuals time to heal from trauma before pursuing legal action. The Supreme Courts decision sends the case back to lower courts, but it leaves bans on physical treatments like shock therapy intact. This development underscores the ongoing debate between LGBTQ protections and free speech rights across the nation.
