Justices deliver broad First Amendment ruling against state therapy restrictions

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 8–1 to strike down a Colorado law prohibiting licensed therapists from engaging in “conversion therapy” with minors, holding that the statute violated the First Amendment by restricting speech based on viewpoint. Writing for a broad majority spanning ideological lines, Justice Neil Gorsuch said the law constituted an “egregious assault” on free speech because it allowed therapists to express certain perspectives, such as affirming a minor’s sexual orientation or gender identity, while prohibiting others. The case was brought by Kaley Chiles, a Christian counselor who argued the law prevented her from helping clients pursue goals aligned with their religious beliefs. Colorado defended the measure as a legitimate regulation of professional conduct aimed at protecting minors from harmful and discredited practices, noting that violations could carry fines of up to $5,000 and licensing consequences, although the law had not been enforced. The ruling has significant national implications, potentially undermining similar restrictions in more than 20 states and the District of Columbia.

Birthright citizenship faces court doubts

The U.S. Supreme Court appears poised to reject President Donald Trump’s executive order restricting birthright citizenship, with both conservative and liberal justices expressing skepticism about its consistency with the Constitution and longstanding legal precedent. During oral arguments on Wednesday in Trump v. Barbara, justices questioned the legal and practical basis of denying citizenship to children born in the U.S. to parents who are undocumented or temporarily present, with Chief Justice John Roberts and others suggesting the administration’s arguments stretched narrow exceptions too broadly. While Justice Clarence Thomas showed some openness to Trump’s position, other conservative justices, including Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh, also raised doubts, indicating the policy could be struck down either on constitutional grounds or under existing federal law. The case carries significant implications for schools and immigrant families, as limiting birthright citizenship could leave more U.S.-born children without legal status, potentially discouraging school enrollment despite legal protections guaranteeing access to public education.
