Call to Action Urge the Governor to Veto the Counseling Ban
The Counseling Ban that passed the House and Senate is a dangerous bill that discriminates against any understanding of gender theory contrary to liberal ideology. Now it has reached the Governor's desk and its his turn to weigh in. The Governor should veto the ban because it unconstitutionally infringes upon the free speech rights of parents, children, and therapists. Please take 30 seconds to email him your opposition to this bill:

This legislation targets parents simply trying to assist their gender-confused children by requiring that any counseling (specifically talk therapy) that they receive affirm liberal gender ideology and sex changes. A well-meaning mental health provider would be gagged and prohibited from exploring the source of a client's feelings, and be required by law to affirm hormone therapy and sex change surgery, regardless of the views of parents.

Please take 30 seconds to click here to ask the Governor to fix this bill before it winds up in the courts, costing hundreds of thousands of dollars in addition to the damage done to children. You can also call him at 617-725-4005. Please make sure you leave your name and address where registered to vote if you are leaving a voicemail.
