For those of you who are so sure that the Supreme Court's striking down of Colorado's ban on LGBTQ conversion therapy is a win for letting doctors not courts decide on what is medicine, I have news for you... verfassungsblog.de/supreme-cour...
“Take the case of lawyers. Lawyers do nothing but talk. … On the Court’s reasoning, to regulate these communications is to regulate speech as speech.”
Check out this new essay by @solomonctryls.bsky.social Senior Scholar @cehaupt.bsky.social and Yale Law School Professor Robert Post on the implications of the recent SCOTUS decision in Chiles v. Salazar, which struck down Colorado’s conversation therapy ban. verfassungsblog.de/supreme-cour...
Claudia Haupt @cehaupt.bsky.social / Robert Post on professional speech (Chiles v. Salazar)
In a "startling decision", the Supreme Court "struck down Colorado’s ban on “conversion therapy” for minors".
This "threatens to undermine the professional advice on which we all constantly rely".
1/10
Quote: “The law encourages and safeguards our reliance on professional advice. But, thanks to the Court’s unusually obtuse decision, that may now change.”
The US Supreme Court’s recent conversion therapy ruling reframes professional advice as protected speech.
CLAUDIA E. HAUPT and ROBERT POST argue that this move risks dismantling the legal framework that ensures competent professional advice.

💯 “If the court follows its approach in Chiles v. Salazar, it will make it more difficult to regulate professionals and to hold them liable to protect their patients and clients”
A dissenting opinion filed by Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson in Chiles v. Salazar, No. 24–539, heavily cites a @yalelawjournal.bsky.social article, “Professional Speech,” by Professor Claudia Haupt @cehaupt.bsky.social. #NUSLPride @nuglobalnews.bsky.social

In her dissent in Chiles v Salazar, in which SCOTUS struck down Colorado’s conversion therapy ban, Justice Jackson frequently cited Solomon Center Scholar @cehaupt.bsky.social in arguing that professional medical speech warrants narrower 1st Amendment protection. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Delighted to see this excellent review of my book by @cehaupt.bsky.social in the American Journal of Comparative Law! Really grateful for her kind words about the book.
Not commercial speech but the more interesting question is where’s the line between “religiously and morally motivated statements” and professional (or pseudoprofessional) advice?

The case “is ultimately about the role of experts and professional advice that communicates expertise,” said Claudia Haupt, professor of law and political science at Northeastern University. “This has the potential to unsettle a huge range of professional regulations more generally.”
Always read @ignaciocofone.bsky.social, including accidental legal history.
