The Supreme Court in 2023 declined to hear a similar challenge brought by a Christian therapist to Washington state's conversion therapy ban. Conservative Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito and Brett Kavanaugh dissented from the court's decision not to take up that case.
The court is considering some other cases during its current term involving LGBT and religious rights, with rulings expected by the end of June. During Dec. 4 arguments, the conservative justices signaled their willingness to uphold a Republican-backed ban in Tennessee on gender-affirming medical care for transgender minors.
