New Hampshire’s Republican Gov. Chris Sununu signed into law on Friday a ban on gay conversion therapy for minors.
Medical and mental health professionals — including the American Medical Association — say the practice to change a minor's sexual orientation or gender identity is proven to be ineffective and can cause psychological harm to LGBTQ youth.
“Discrimination — in any form — is unacceptable and runs contrary to New Hampshire’s Live Free or Die Spirit,” Sununu said in a statement, as reported by WMUR. “If we really want to be the ‘Live Free or Die’ state, we must ensure that New Hampshire is a place where every person, regardless of their background, has an equal and full opportunity to pursue their dreams and to make a better life for themselves and their families.”
The conservative group Cornerstone Action, which fought against the legislation, expressed disappointment in a statement calling for strengthening “the Christian base” of the New Hampshire legislature.
"I expected Governor Sununu to stand by Christian principles and veto these bills, but he didn't," Cornerstone executive director Shannon McGinley wrote. "Yes, it's discouraging. We fight to win. The fight is almost always close, but somehow with the grace of God, we've prevailed in some important battles. This time we didn't. And it's a big loss."
New Hampshire becomes the 13th state to ban the practice, and Delaware is close behind to become the 14th.
Legislators in the General Assembly passed the measure on Thursday and it now heads to the desk of Democratic Gov. John Carney, who is expected to sign it into law, according to WDEL Radio.
Sununu also signed a bill on Friday that extends protections against workplace, housing and public discrimination to transgender people, according to WMUR news.
Let me introduce you to Scott Lively, candidate in the primary for governor, here behind enemy lines in Massachusetts.
“Discrimination — in any form — is unacceptable and runs contrary to New Hampshire’s Live Free or Die Spirit,” Sununu said in a statement …. . . as he signs a law that blatantly discriminates against Christians, observant Jews and others. Utter hypocrisy. It is not the Obama era anymore, Chrissy.
Hasn’t this therapy actually worked for many people? That hurts the argument that people are born gay.
Imagine being GOVERNOR of a state so devoid of blacks and the third worlders your fellow communists have dispatched elsewhere that this is a priority.
Exterminate New Hampshire, its ridiculous they have 2 “Senators” to begin with.
But it is okay to convert a heterosexual into a homosexual...
If it is illegal to convert a gay to heterosexual, is it illegal to try to convert a heterosexual to gay??
This could lead to lawsuits.
How about applying this crap to the indoctrination ,brainwashing of our kids through the media, schools etc.
How can helping someone who says they might be confused, or is saying they think they are a homo hurtful?
It is frigging obvious that in order to have a baby for the human species to carry on then you have to be attracted, or have sex with the opposite sex, not the same sex. Telling someone it is alright to like the same sex is hurtful to them.
well said
Kids, and ex homo’s have said that they have been helped by the the help they received, and are glad to be away form the homo, crowd and lifestyle.
Hear, hear!
It’s not a psychological conversion but a spiritual one.
Liberal Chris Sununu believes two things:
Gays should not be allowed to become straight if they want.
And fake women are legally and morally equivalent to real woman.
This man is no conservative. NH voters could have put in a Democrat and he would have done exactly the same thing - without lying to them about his values.
“Just get a Republican elected!” once again doesn’t get the job done.
Wake up.
Let every silly state ban it. If anything, that will encourage Christian ministry to go full tilt, in a spiritual sphere that neither psychologist nor therapist grasp but vaguely.
I believe God has absolutely forced the battle to be in the spiritual sphere for excellent reason. He wants the victory to be unequivocally His — not Freud’s.
Republican Governor no less.
Like father, like son. RINO USA.
Does this mean they will stop trying to convert children in schools to homosexuals?
That really ought to go for all unrepented sin. Buggery is not special in this sense. Communion has become a social formality. Maybe the Salvation Army was quite wise to omit it from their services — that way nobody can sin against it.
They’ll just call it different things.
What\s the difference between a liberal Republican and a liberal Democrat?
The Republican will lie to your face to get elected.
Once you are gay, you will stay that way!
A Republican did this. I hope SIN-nu-nu soon becomes SIN-NI-NO!
