Students across Florida walked out of class Thursday to protest Republicans’ new anti-LGBTQ+ education legislation, known as the “Don’t Say Gay” bill.
Protesters: “We say gay! We say gay! We say gay! We say gay! We say gay! We say gay!”
The bill would ban discussions of sexual orientation and gender identity in schools. Meanwhile, in Iowa, Republican Governor Kim Reynolds has signed a new law banning transgender girls and women from school sports. Iowa is the 11th state to ban transgender athletes. Legal challenges are expected.
