Ban conversion therapy
 

I am urging you to ban conversion therapy, a non-medical based procedure that cannot possibly affect an individual's sexuality. Gender identity and sexual attraction are a function of our genetic makeup. Conversion therapy cannot change our genes--there is no scientific evidence supporting the hypothesis that conversion therapy affects our genes. Enough of this nonsense!
