Florida's 'Stop Woke Act' Blocked Again by Federal Appeals Court.
TL;DR
A federal appeals court has ruled against removing a temporary block on Florida's "Stop Woke Act" pushed by Governor Ron DeSantis, which restricts how race is discussed in schools, colleges, and workplaces. The law was blocked by a U.S. District Judge in November, who ruled it unconstitutional, and the state's appeal and request for a stay were both denied. The law remains intact for K-12 schools, and the state still faces several lawsuits.
