Supreme Court holds that Colorado's conversion therapy ban "censors" talk therapists Justice Gorsuch wrote for the 8-1 court that the law is presumptively unconstitutional as to talk therapy. Justice Jackson dissented, writing that the “fallout could be catastrophic.“

If you're wondering, as I have been, about getting more judges approved before the fascist takes office, this piece by #lawdork will enlighten you. You'll have a better understanding of the process and what is holding things up after reading it. TY #ChrisGeidner!

Senate Dems begin their final effort until at least 2029 to put judges on the courts Seventeen of Biden's judicial nominees are awaiting a vote of the full Senate, with seven more expected to be on the floor by Thanksgiving.

Senate Dems should vote early, late, and all night long if necessary to confirm all these folks, and #ScrantonJoe should do the same. You can sleep over the holidays. Git 'er done, dammit. #lawdork

Republicans afraid of voters' views on abortion want to stop the voting altogether Missouri Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft went so far as to try "decertifying" a ballot measure he previously OK'ed. The state's supreme court said he lacked that power.
