How Your Representative and Senator Voted on the HB68 Override

COLUMBUS—On Wednesday, the Ohio Senate concurred with the Ohio House of Representatives to override Governor Mike DeWine's veto of Substitute House Bill (HB68), which includes the Save Women's Sports Act and the SAFE (Saving Adolescents From Experimentation) Act.

The CCV-backed bill bans sterilizing and experimental transgender medicine on children and protects girls from being forced to compete against boys in K-12 and collegiate athletics.

Below are the vote breakdowns for both the House and the Senate. Not sure who your legislators are or how to contact them? Use CCV's "Find Your Lawmaker" tool, and, if your legislators voted for the override, send them a "thank you" note!
