- Jackson v. Whitmer, No. 1:24-cv-718, 2025 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 20167, at *50 (W.D. Mich. Jan. 28, 2025) ("The Court's preliminary conclusion is that Michigan's law readily satisfies the rational basis requirements. The Michigan legislature acted rationally when it decided to protect the psychological wellbeing of its minors by preventing state-licensed health care providers from engaging in conversion therapy with them. Plaintiffs are not likely to establish the Free Speech violations alleged in Counts I through III.") (footnote omitted).
