An open letter to the U.S. Congress

“Faith-Based Counseling” is Conversion Therapy.

8 so far! Help us get to 10 signers!

I am writing to express my deep disgust and heartbreak over the recent Executive Order halting all gender-affirming care for federal employees and their dependents, while promoting so-called “faith-based counseling”—a thinly veiled endorsement of conversion therapy. This directive is a blatant violation of personal freedom and bodily autonomy, and represents an alarming overreach of government power into the private lives and healthcare decisions of individuals. Our nation was founded on the principles of liberty and the right to live authentically without fear of discrimination or coercion. I urge you to stand firmly against this unconstitutional order and protect the rights and dignity of all Americans, regardless of gender identity. • Prohibit federal endorsement or funding of conversion therapy under any guise • Enact legislation protecting access to gender-affirming healthcare nationwide • Prohibit federal endorsement or funding of conversion therapy under any guise • Enact legislation protecting access to gender-affirming healthcare nationwide
