Ohio Republican lawmakers have introduced House Bill 693, dubbed the “Affirming Families First Act,” which would bar child-protection investigations and certain custody-related restrictions when the only issue is a parent’s insistence on a child’s biological sex. Ohio’s top Democratic legislative leaders declined to take a position when contacted by The Daily Wire, which also linked the debate to President Donald Trump’s remarks about a Virginia custody dispute during his Feb. 24, 2026, State of the Union address.
