pursue legislation to ban harmful "conversion therapy" nationwide.

Legislation is needed to end attempts to brainwash or reverse a child's gender or sexual identity through so-called "conversion therapy." We must not allow therapists to increase suicide rates in at-risk populations with therapy methodologies that have been demonstrated as harmful and ineffective. These methods have been criticized by professional associations including the American Psychological Association, the National Association of Social Workers, and the American Counseling Association.
Recently, a teenager named Leelah Alcorn committed suicide after being forced to endure conversion therapy. In her final message, she asked that we "Fix Society." In her honor, please pursue this needed legislation, and name it Leelah's Law.
