California’s Ban on ‘Sexual Orientation Therapy’ to Face Legal Challenges
"Religious and civil rights law groups say they are headed to federal court to try to stop a new California law that bars licensed counselors and therapists – even if they are pastors, priests or rabbis -- from helping anyone under 18 to change their sexual orientation.
“This unprecedented bill is outrageously unconstitutional,” Brad Dacus, president of the Pacific Justice Institute, told CNSNews.com from his offices in Sacramento.
Pacific Justice Institute is one of several conservative legal groups preparing to file legal challenges in federal district court to SB 1172, which Gov. Jerry Brown signed into law on Saturday."
