Inside the Supreme Court Case on Colorado’s Counseling Ban, with Joseph Kohm

October 16, 2025

What happened at the U.S. Supreme Court on October 7 could reshape the future of free speech, religious liberty, and counseling for children struggling with gender identity.


The case is Chiles v. Salazar, a direct challenge to Colorado’s law that bans licensed counselors from helping minors accept their biological sex, even when that’s what the child and family want. In other words, the state is trying to control what counselors are allowed to say.


Joseph Kohm, our Vice President of Public Policy and co-host of the podcast House to Home, joins Craig in our latest episode of The SoCon Report. Joseph was in Washington, D.C., during the oral arguments and witnessed the events unfold. In this episode, we break down:

  • The shocking claims made by Colorado’s Solicitor General in defense of the law
  • How Justice Samuel Alito compared the state’s argument to America’s dark history of eugenics, and
  • What this case means for parents, counselors, churches, and your freedom to seek biblical guidance


This is more than a courtroom battle. It is about who has the right to speak truth and help hurting children: families or the government.
