House Bill 81, which would have required school employees to use the names and pronouns of students that correspond to their birth certificates (unless they have parental consent and teachers would still be able to opt-out for religious reasons).

House Bill 648, which would have banned gender-affirming healthcare for minors, which encompasses puberty blockers, hormones, and surgery.

All three bills passed with a supermajority vote, meaning that overriding the vetoes is possible.
