Examining Florida Governor DeSantis' Controversial Laws and Agenda

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has signed several controversial bills into law, including a ban on abortions after six weeks of pregnancy, a law preventing school staff and students from using pronouns that don't correspond to a person's sex, and a bill allowing Floridians to carry concealed guns without a permit. DeSantis has also banned colleges from using state or federal funding for diversity, equity, and inclusion programs and expanded the "Don't Say Gay" law to cover all grades. The Republican governor has cemented himself as a conservative standard-bearer in the lead-up to his 2024 presidential announcement.
