The expanded law is expected to escalate tensions between Governor Ron DeSantis and his critics, who refer to the law as the 'Don't Say Gay' law.

NewsweekEquality Florida, an LGBTQ+ advocacy group thatbecause of recent laws that make it"hostile" for LGBTQ+ individuals, called the law a"despicable escalation" of DeSantis'"assault on freedom".

"Free states do not ban books. Free states do not censor entire communities out of the classroom. Free states do not refuse to recognize the historical contributions of LGBTQ people because of who they are and who they love.

Newsweek is just like other “journalism” organizations. They constantly add fuel to worsen the situation by misleading their readers. The Bill is to stop schools from “teaching sexual orientation” in K-12. This SHOULD stay out of our schools.

Nancy Reagan told us just to say no to drugs and how did that work?

GOOD, YOU SICK PERVERT DEMOCRAT GROOMERS!!!

Insanity in America.

No it doesn't. It bans the teaching of sexual orientation and gender identity in the classroom. That includes the teaching of heterosexuality. Your headline is deliberately misleading to get people all riled up.

Important to note this bill explicitly bans any discussion on gender identity/sexual orientation and any discussion on sexuality outside of a reproductive context. So it's as explicit as it gets. Last year it was fairly open-ended. This isn't. It's a clear cut anti-LGBTQ ban.

Well, this isn't true at all 🤣 CommunityNotes

Really....Discrimination by age? Freedom of speech violation?

It's okay they can buy as many guns their little hearts desire.

If only sexuality were guns right Florida?

I have been 18 years old for 33 years now. I am a gay woman trapped in a male body. I wear men’s clothing and no makeup but find men disgusting. neverdateaman

😂😂😂😂😂😂 Sorry, REJECTS!

They're becoming each day more like the Talibans. Shame of Republicans, they're a disgrace for America

If Clarence Thomas were a liberal justice on the Supreme Court, GOP outrage would've incinerated the planet at this point. The silence of the party of law & order is deafening.🤬

No, it bans sexual orientation and gender identity from being part of classroom curriculums, where the topics have no place.

It's appalling and just plain UN-AMERICAN! 🤬
