Last night, Ohio's ban on transgender athletes in K-12 sports failed to pass through the legislature. We are absolutely thrilled by this news! Thank you to our partners and advocates who tirelessly fought this legislation into the night last night.

“I am begging you to stop attacking trans healthcare and trans people. I am begging you to stop referencing detransitioners such as myself as a justification for attacking trans healthcare.” Carey Callahan, destransitioner and counselor testified in opposition to HB 68 today.

Governor Kasich just issued an executive order which protects all LGBTQ state employees from discrimination––including transgender and genderqueer employees. Equality Ohio and TransOhio have been working on this for months! equalityohio.org/gov-kasich-iss…

Today, in a 10-7 vote, the Ohio Board of Education voted to pass the Anti-Transgender resolution to oppose the proposed changes to Title IX passed by the federal government in June of this year. We are deeply disappointed in this result.

👏 VICTORY: You showed up and delivered a clear message to the governor: #OhioIsHome and we won’t tolerate bills that take away our freedoms. We’re relieved to see #HB68 vetoed, and we couldn’t have done it without your support.

Good news! 🌈 House Bill 6, Ohio's Transgender Sports Ban, has been removed from the committee hearing for tomorrow. We'll let you know about any updates or schedule changes. But today, a bit of GOOD NEWS :)

This Thursday, Ohio politicians will be hearing TWO extreme pieces of anti-bodily autonomy legislation: HB 454 and HB 598. Lawmakers are purposefully trying to split your attention. Don’t Let Them.

Everyone in Ohio deserves reproductive freedom. Everyone deserves bodily autonomy. Period. 💕

Hi folks! We know today is heavy. We understand this misinformation is harmful. Please take a moment to yourself today, whatever that means to you. Do not let them take away your joy. Joy is resistance.

🗣️BREAKING: We will be filing a lawsuit to defend transgender youth and their constitutional right to receive medically necessary healthcare. HB 68 is not only cruel; it violates the Ohio Constitution and must be challenged. acluohio.org/en/press-relea…
