Federal Judge Blocks Florida's Anti-Drag Law.
TL;DR Summary
A federal judge in Florida has temporarily blocked the state from enforcing a new law that bars minors from attending drag shows. The judge ruled that the law was overly broad and could have a chilling effect on free speech under the First Amendment. The law was passed by Florida's Republican-led Legislature in April and signed by Gov. Ron DeSantis in May. The restaurant chain Hamburger Mary's sued the state, arguing that the law was unconstitutional and could ban family-friendly drag shows.
