An advocacy group has warned members of the LGBTQ+ community against travelling to the state over what it perceives as threats to 'health, safety and freedom.'
Equality Florida cited studies that had found over half of LGBTQ+ parents in the state were considering leaving and that one in eight high school students would not attend college in Florida due to its education policies, as signs of the impact those policies were already having.
While Everytown says state legislators"are instead actively working to weaken Florida's gun laws," it also states that Florida's gun violence rate is similar to the national average and that the state bars people with convictions for violent offenses from carrying a concealed weapon. Gov. Ron DeSantis speaks at Hillsdale College on April 6, 2023 in Hillsdale, Michigan. Equality Florida accused him of making “extremist policies the centerpiece of his presidential campaign strategy.”The Florida legislature passed a bill on Tuesday that bans children from attending drag shows. Proponents of the bill expressed concerns that such events expose minors to inappropriate behavior, while opponents said it would demonize the LGBTQ+ community.
