Therapeutic Fraud Prevention Act of 2025

This bill bans the commercial provision of conversion therapy - defined as paid attempts to change a person's sexual orientation or gender identity - as it is deemed ineffective and harmful. It directly affects therapists, clinics, and any commercial entity offering such services, while exempting gender transition support and non-discriminatory counseling. Key mechanisms include prohibiting paid conversion therapy, banning deceptive advertising (e.g., claiming it’s harmless), and empowering the Federal Trade Commission and state attorneys general to enforce penalties. The law focuses on preventing fraud by stopping profit-driven practices with no scientific basis, aligning with professional consensus on the risks.
