Ron DeSantis Signs Four Bills Into Law Restricting LGBTQ+ Rights in Florida
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis Wednesday signed new laws targeting LGBTQ+ people, especially trans people. The Republican governor presented the bills as a pushback on extremism.
He signed the slate of anti-LGBTQ+ bills on the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia.
At a Christian school, he promised to make Florida a “citadel of normalcy.”
The bills signed are House Bill 1069, which legislatively expands the state's "don't say gay" law; Senate Bill 254, which bans gender-affirming care; House Bill 1521, which restricts what bathrooms transgender people can use; and House Bill 1423, which restrict drag shows.
