Ohio House Republicans Override Governor's Veto, Vote to Ban Gender Mutilation Surgeries for Children

Fred Lucas : Jan 12, 2024  LifeSiteNews.com

In addition to asserting a false reality that one's sex can be changed, transgender surgeries and drugs have been linked to permanent physical and psychological damage, including cardiovascular diseases, loss of bone density, cancer, strokes and blood clots, infertility, and suicidality.

(Columbus, OH) — [LifeSiteNews.com] The Ohio House voted to override Governor Mike DeWine's veto of legislation that bans the chemical and surgical mutilation of gender-confused kids, sometimes referred to as "sex changes." The legislation also prohibits gender-confused males from competing against females in women's sports. (Image: Ohio Statehouse /via Pixabay)

The House passed the legislation, the Saving Adolescents from Experimentation (SAFE) Act, again on Wednesday by a vote of 65-28. The Ohio Senate convenes again on January 24 and could vote to override the governor's veto.

The moderate Republican governor vetoed the legislation at the end of December after lobbying from LGBT activists.

Last week, he signed a limited executive order that adopted state health department rules to "prohibit gender transition surgeries on anyone under the age of 18 in Ohio's hospitals and health care facilities, including ambulatory surgical facilities," as reported by LifeSiteNews. However, it does not protect kids against hormone injections nor contain protections for female athletes.

DeWine echoed a favored talking point of some Republicans, saying the government should not be involved in whether kids can have permanent surgical and chemical changes. The same libertarian argument has been used by failed presidential candidates and former governors Chris Christie and Asa Hutchinson.

He also cited the often made but baseless claim that children who are not allowed to present themselves as the opposite sex will commit suicide. The claims of the alleged "benefits" of surgical and chemical interventions have been repudiated by credentialed medical experts, and numerous European countries are moving to restrict the procedures.

In addition to asserting a false reality that one's sex can be changed, transgender surgeries and drugs have been linked to permanent physical and psychological damage, including cardiovascular diseases, loss of bone density, cancer, strokes and blood clotsinfertility, and suicidality.

In any case, it is not possible for someone to change his or her sex... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
