Description
Gov. Ron DeSantis signed several bills into law that prevents children from receiving gender-affirming care, force people to use the bathroom corresponding with their sex and further expand restrictions surrounding classroom discussions on gender identity and sexual orientation.
He signed the bills Wednesday at Cambridge Christian School in Tampa, declaring "let kids be kids." DeSantis said the new laws will prevent mutilation of minors, protect children from "sexually explicit" entertainment and keep pronouns from being forced on students.
The laws further harm the LGBTQ community, critics contend. Florida Rep. Anna Eskamani, D-Orlando, in a statement, said Republicans like DeSantis "are pushing an extreme agenda that is fueled by disinformation, isolating already marginalized people."
