Counseling children that they should be ashamed of who they are, not good enough, or that they need to change themselves is cruel & shameful. It is also out of touch with the medical profession & results in mental health problems & suicides. It’s not hard to love & support kids

NEW from me: Religious counselors sue to overturn Virginia’s ban on conversion therapy for minors #VALeg @TFFVA @JasonMiyaresVA @AdamEbbin @HopeforVirginia wvtf.org/news/2024-09-26/rel…

Religious counselors sue to overturn Virginia’s ban on conversion therapy for minors

Virginia passed a ban on conversion therapy, the practice of a licensed therapist trying to change a minor’s sexuality or gender identity through counseling, in 2020.

Labeling 70% of schools "off-track" & subjecting them to state control is yet another way to undermine our elected school boards & public school systems. If @GovernorVA really wanted to help schools, he'd support fully funding them w/ our surplus instead of promoting tax cuts.

Yesterday, the Board of Education adopted some terrible changes that are bad for VA students, parents, and educators. Here's why these changes are wrong for Virginia 🧵

One of the best ways to keep our nation moving forward is to give our workers a voice. As President, I’ll protect the freedom to organize, defend collective bargaining and sign the PRO Act into law.
