Colorado Gov. Jared Polis signs legislation banning psychotherapy, known as "conversion therapy," that seeks to change the sexual orientation or gender identity of minors, at a Capitol ceremony in Denver on Friday, May 31, 2019. Colorado becomes the 18th U.S. state to ban the therapy, which has been denounced by psychology's governing bodies and has been linked to increased risk of suicide, depression and drug use among teens.
