Description
Hamburger Mary's Bar & Grille in Orlando is taking legal action against Gov. Ron DeSantis over a recently-signed Florida law that affects drag shows.
The nationally-known burger joint filed a federal lawsuit against DeSantis on Monday over claims that SB 1438 — the law that restricts kids' attendance at "adult live performances" — violates its First Amendment rights.
"This bill has nothing to do with children, and everything to do with the continued oppression of the LGBTQ+ community," Hamburger Mary's Orlando wrote in a statement on its Facebook page.
It's the latest in the fallout over a number of controversial laws said to target the LGBTQ+ community that the Florida governor signed last week.
The new legislation has already led event organizers, including some in Tampa, to cancel Pride celebrations. It has also led civil rights organizations to issue travel advisories for Florida.
