SAFE, Save Women’s Sports acts will now become law
COLUMBUS (1-10-24) – State Representative Angie King (R-Celina) has voted in favor of overriding the veto of the SAFE Act and Save Women’s Sports Act by Gov. Mike DeWine.
Vetoed by the Governor Dec. 29, House Bill 68 will protect children who are experiencing gender dysphoria from sex change procedures including chemical castration through puberty blockers, and invasive surgical procedures. It also includes the Save Women’s Sports Act, which provides safeguards for women’s-only athletic competitions from kindergarten through college.

King released the following statement about the vote:
“We need to protect children from making life-altering decisions at such a young age. The Governor may not have wanted to pass this legislation, but the majority of Ohioans want it. Today I, along with my colleagues in the House, kept our promise to override the Governor’s veto. Ohio will be a place where children are protected from harmful surgeries and women can play sports with other biological women.”

State Representative Angie King was elected in November 2022 to the Ohio House of Representatives. She represents the 84th House District, serving residents of Mercer, Darke and Auglaize counties.
Mercer County Outlook 
So, the dear soon-to-be governor candidate is “concerned” about “life-altering” experiences of children. Perhaps dear children guru King should show some concern regarding the proliferation of guns and gun violence in our fair state of Ohio. “Protection of children?” Surely you jest. Guns are the leading cause of DEATH amongst children and a SCOURGE perpetrated by “Taliban-esque” politicians. I’ll pay attention to this charlatan when she speaks with one voice, rather than both sides of her mouth. Guess the gun lobby contributes more to her war chest than professionals in the health care realm, including PARENTS of the minors involved.
