What to know about a Wisconsin Supreme Court ruling that cleared the way for the state to institute a ban on conversion therapy.

The Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled that the committee has been overreaching its authority in blocking a variety of other state regulations during Democratic Gov. Tony Evers’ administration. That clears the way for the conversion therapy ban to be enacted, although it’s not immediately known when it will take effect.

For years, Governor Tony Evers has been working to ban conversion therapy, the discredited practice of converting members of the LGBTQ+ community to heterosexuality. The Governor has been twice blocked by the Republican-controlled Joint Committee for the Review of Administrative Rules.
