Plasencia voted to end gender-affirming care and forcibly detransition trans minors, and Basabe has beenembroiled in controversy after voting in favor of an expansion of Florida’s controversial “don’t say gay” law. He has since defended that vote and has also pushed back against accusations by male staffers of creating a sexually charged work environment.
