Nonilex, 4 months ago The #RepublicanControlled Ohio #House voted to override 65-28 earlier this month, followed by the state #Senate’s 23-9 vote on Wed after nearly an hour of debate across the aisle. Both chambers are led by #Republican supermajorities. #Republicans argued the bill protects #children above all else. “We tell parents what to do all the time,” said state Sen Stephen Huffman (R). “So this isn’t any different.” #TransgenderRights #legislation #health #law #politics #LGBTQ+ #GenderAffirmingCare

Nonilex, 4 months ago #Democrats contended it infringes on #TransgenderRights. “This #legislation is the exact opposite of the American dream,” said state Sen Kent Smith (D). “Instead of providing comfort it will inflict great #pain.” Families of #trans youths will not be able to access treatments in #Ohio to support #GenderAffirmingCare…. The #law also blocks #transgender #girls from playing on school #sports teams designated for girls & #women. The law goes into effect in 90 days. #health #LGBTQ+
