Leah Hogsten | The Salt Lake Tribune "The conversion therapy bill was hijacked and rewritten to protect conversion therapy," said Troy Williams, Equality Utah's Executive Director. LGBT supporters with Equality Utah and therapists say they will continue to fight conversion therapy during a press conference to condemn the passage of HB399. The House Judiciary Committee approved a substitute bill by Rep. Karianne Lisonbee, R-Clearfield, on Tuesday that would allow therapists to have some discussion about changing sexual orientation with young patients.
