The Ohio House of Representatives voted Wednesday to override Republican Gov. Mike DeWine’s veto of a bill that would protect children from irreversible transgender sex-change procedures and medical interventions, such as puberty blockers and hormones.

The state’s House of Representatives met Wednesday afternoon to vote on overriding the governor’s veto.

[Next up is a vote in the state Senate. DeWine hurried to issue an EO banning surgical sex-change procedures for minors, but it doesn’t cover hormone treatments and other “trans” efforts. It also does nothing to protect females in sports from male encroachment. DeWine claimed that executive authority would stand up better in court than actual legislation, which is flat-out laughable, given the deference that legislatures normally receive in court. – Ed]
