1Opinion of the CourtRiordan, J.
Defendants appeal by leave granted a preliminary injunction enjoining the immediate effect of House Bill 4246 (HB 4246) and House Bill 4929 (HB 4929). We granted appellants’ application for leave to appeal and motion for immediate consideration. We stayed the trial court’s order and further proceedings pending the resolution of this appeal. Because plaintiffs fail to demonstrate a likelihood of success on the merits or an irreparable harm, we reverse the trial court’s order, vacate the preliminary injunction, and remand for an order of dismissal.
