The proposed law allowing psychologists to undertake treatment to reverse homosexuality was     approved yesterday, June 18, by the Human Rights Commission of the Chamber of Deputies. The     commission president, anti-gay preacher Mr Marco Feliciano, took the opportunity of promoting this issue while everyone was protesting against the issue of reducing the bus fares to approve the ‘gay cure’ project [pt]. There are many online petitions [pt] against the measure.
