I take so much joy in Republican passed amendments after ACA passage being why they can't ban trans healthcare.

Like they were misguided in their reasoning to originally pass the amendment, but they weren't actually bad amendments for the most part. Healthcare access should be protected. More so we should be fighting for universal healthcare.

And now I get to giggle every time one is used against them.

This had me howling with laughter all the way down I-80 this afternoon.

My state of Wyoming had the same thing happen to them when they tried an abortion ban a few years back. They already had a "healthcare freedom" constitutional amendment to f*** with Obamacare and it got thrown back in their faces by the judge when they tried to follow the MAGA's and institute a highly restrictive abortion ban.

I think they just passed a GAC ban as well, hopefully the Ohio case is cited as precedent when it gets challenged in court.

I know it may seem kinda callous to be laughing at this - I know its deadly serious for trans people across the country rn - but you gotta love the irony of the Republicans accidentally protecting healthcare freedom cause they hated the ACA so much. Thanks bunches, you old white bastards!
