#HB68
I am so happy that the awfulness we live with in Ohio (HB68) was stopped at the federal level. Now if y’all could send some of those vibes our way, we have work to do.

His plan is actually way more evil than HB68 ever was, tbh..

I'm heartbroken for Ohio right now. The people who pushed through HB68, now combined with the new JCARR rules alongside newly advanced bathroom bills have made their position clear. This was never about protecting anyone, it was about eliminating trans people who lawmakers today called "deformed".

Now on HB68 from Education Policy and Administration

holy shit, dewine vetoed HB68
December 29, 2023 at 3:40 PM
again: i think the lack of clarity is the point. i have no idea who has those machines and where.

when ohio’s hb68 proposed a bioethicist be involved in trans care, no infrastructure existed for that. confusion & potential bottlenecks can both help & hurt enforcement.

uncertainty is a weapon.

or more specifically, amendment 0103h to HB68

Ohio voters already showed they can defend the rights of families and patients when it comes to abortion--and now trans people and our families need your help. If you live in Ohio, please help us demand a veto of HB68 and protect the care trans people need. action.aclu.org/send-message...

Breaking: On a 24-8 vote, Ohio Senate PASSES anti-trans bill, HB68, with a ban on gender-affirming medical care for minors and a sports ban. There were amendments, though, so the House must concur to the changes.

For anyone else thoroughly confused:
* HB68 in Ohio is a law passed that attempts to ban 'gender affirming care' for trans youth, as well as banning trans girls from playing sports, in the state of Ohio.
* Judge Holbrook issued an injunction, which stops the state from putting the law into action🧵

While there is still the potential for an injunction in the courts, this paves the way for HB68 to become law while DeWine's administration moves forward with crafting sweeping restrictions on care for trans adults, as well as additional rules for surveillance of trans people through JCARR.

"As governor I will be joining in lockstep with all of my Democratic colleagues in the Ohio Congress in opposing HB68" would be the compromise position.
July 29, 2026 at 5:07 PM
That language was removed from the bill that ended up becoming law (HB68).

Jeannette Cooper is talking about the 'sexual pleasure of trans children' during the Ohio Senate Government Oversight Committee hearing of HB68 right now. Her own children don't even talk to her anymore. 🤮

Chloe literally testified in court under oath that she makes up to $100,000 in speaking fees and made an additional $100k in donations in her donorbox.

She has to lie to her followers about how much she's really making but she can't lie in court.

Please send good vibes this way. Hoping my kid can get prescribed puberty blockers tomorrow so we can slip in the small window we have to start her on hormone therapy and circumvent HB68. 🤞🏳️‍⚧️

DeWine vetoed HB68 which is a HUGE surprise for me. It's good news on a few levels, not least that it stretches out the timelines to help protect Ohio trans kids.

I think Ohio Rs can still block the veto but for today, this is great news!

Both of my state legislators were big supporters of HB68, and they will waltz back into the legislature after the November elections without facing consequences. It’s infuriating.
