He has signed an Executive order banning trans surgeries for minors, hoping to avoid an override of his veto of house bill 68 that would have banned all treatments for minors to transition. In fact, law makers were going to come to work early to do just that as Mike saw the writing on the wall and got a little squirmy.
"DeWine admitted that he has not come across any families seeking gender-affirming surgeries for their minor children, and that he has been assured that such surgeries are not performed on minors in Ohio.
“There is very little [evidence] that that is occurring, but let’s make sure,” he said."
So, what is the "little evidence" Mike? There is ample of evidence of underaged girls getting their breasts lopped of around the country, for example, so maybe that is what he is referring to. In fact, Mike DeWine got a zoom call from one such girl who now regrets her transition and was sterilized by hormones, something that is not stopped with Mike DeWine's Executive Order. So yes, Mike is fully aware that this happens and vetoed HR 68 that would have prevented it anyway.
Such dishonesty and lack of moral conviction, but that's politics folks.
