DeSantis enacts sweeping restrictions on trans rights in Florida

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has signed bills banning transgender medical treatments for children, restricting pronoun use in classrooms, and prohibiting children from entering drag shows. The legislation also requires public bathrooms and changing rooms to be separated based on biological sex. Critics have called the legislation "mean spirited," while DeSantis claims it will make Florida a "refuge of sanity." The governor is expected to enter the 2024 White House race soon and has previously signed bills banning teaching on gender identity in public schools, restricting abortion access, and protecting gun rights.
