Ohio Attorney General Breaks Down Leftist Legal 'Trick' to Block GOP Efforts to Protect Kids

Mary Margaret Olohan : Apr 24, 2024   The Daily Signal

"...It's contrary to the law, it's a misuse of the judicial process, and its fundamentally anti-Democratic." -Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost

[DailySignal.com] Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost is not going to allow one lone judge to dictate whether the children of Ohio are protected from "transgender" surgeries and hormones, he shared in an interview with The Daily Signal. (Screengrab image: via WBNS)

Yost asked the state's Supreme Court to intervene after Judge Michael Holbrook issued a temporary restraining order for House Bill 68, the Saving Ohio Adolescents From Experimentation, or SAFE, Act, on Tuesday.

That law bars physicians from performing "transgender reassignment" surgeries on children and from prescribing cross-sex hormones or drugs to block children's puberty. It also would allow students to sue if they are deprived of a fair playing field in sports due to transgender activism (such as a boy who "identifies" as a girl playing on a girls' volleyball team) and would protect parents' rights to raise their children according to their biological sex.

A supermajority of Republican lawmakers voted to override Gov. Mike DeWine's controversial veto of the bill in January, and before Holbrook blocked it, it was scheduled to go into effect on April 24.

On Monday, Yost, the Medical Board of Ohio, and the state of Ohio filed an emergency motion for a writ of prohibition, asking that Holbrook be ordered to modify his temporary restraining order to "comply with Ohio statutory and procedural limitations."

The Ohio attorney general discussed the move and what he hopes will ensue from here in an interview with The Daily Signal.

"This is actually a trick that the Left has been using for a long time," he explained. "Go to court with a couple of sympathetic plaintiffs, get a court order restraining the law from applying to anybody anywhere, and then use it to avoid majority rule and democratic processes that we have here in America."

"It's contrary to the law, it's a misuse of the judicial process, and its fundamentally anti-Democratic," he said. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
