"Gov. DeSantis and Florida lawmakers are legislating based on a false, discriminatory premise that puts the safety and well-being of transgender children on the line," Human Rights Coalition President Alphonso David said in a statement."All Floridians will have to face the consequences of this anti-transgender legislation -- including economic harm, expensive taxpayer-funded legal battles, and a tarnished reputation.
"If GOP lawmakers would have spent half as much time helping Floridians struggling with economic issues as they spent pushing trans kids out of school sports, our state would be much better off," he said in a statement. "The safety and integrity of women's sports should not be up for debate and this legislation will ensure that both will remain intact," Republican state Rep. Kaylee Tuck said in a statement.
He promotes sanity in a world u try to destroy with ur agenda. Where is the LPGA trans? Women basketball college, pro? U pick on kids as always.
he needs to be impeached hay fl you can impeach this tyrant
Glad to know red states are really focusing on the important things...oppressing a very small minority of trans people, restricting voting, outlawing vaccine cards, and oppressing women with abortion laws while they bitch about how they shouldnt have to wear masks
If you where born a male then that is the sport you should have to play and vice versa!
You can be whatever you want, but don’t compete as a female when you were born with the muscles of a male, this should be a no brainer and people who are disputing it are only in it for the argument
We are trying to unearth aliens and see if they are different from us but the people we are genetically identical to are being segregated, isolated and made illegal. I want to be an alien
Lying liberal media
I AGREE THAT IT IS UNFAIR FOR NATURALLY BORN FEMALES BE EXPECTED TO COMPETE WITH TRANSGENDER FEMALES.QUALIFIED SPORTS LIKE CHESS, BOWLING, BILLIARDS BUT WRESTLING, BOXING, WEIGHT LIFTING,BASKETBALL AND BASEBALL SHOULD BE UNQUALIFIED COMPETITION!!
Another Governor allow bullying in every level of school. Why don’t you just tell your school board in the states that have passed this law that it doesn’t matter what your gender is that the Governor approves bullying and is going to reward parents and students that does it!
That’s not all it targeted. It was a Trojan horse. While ppl were focused on that, they slid some provisions in for charter schools. This guy is like 45. Better pay attention to what’s in both hands.
Not 'targeting' transgender athletes. He's assuring fair play for women in women sports!!! What's so hard to understand... 🤔🤔
East Germany would be appalled.
Another idiot Desantis move...
Isnt the headline- signs bill to protect female sport ?
He is not “targeting them”. He is protecting real girls from pretend girls who have male DNA. It IS NOT fair in any way for a biological male to compete with girls.
Desantis is a Clueless Person! All people are Equal!
“Targeting”? Fair and balanced reporting indeed. The media truly is the enemy of the American people.
one of the worst dicks alive today.
Thank you govenor DeSantis for protecting girls who work so hard in their sports from having to compete against biological males.
Hey DeSantis - How Come It Takes FIVE years or LONGER to Build A ROAD in Florida? My Parents Moved there 5 years ago road under construction to their house - still - nowhere near Done !
And using a child to hand him the pens...that image bugged me more than anything...”got to be taught”
Floriduh 🙄
The cruelty is the point. christianLove
You may not want to hear this but he would be the Republicans‘ presidential candidate.
RonBeGone regardless of which side you fall on RonDeSantis selected GayPrideMonth for his own political agenda. DeSantismustbeDethroned
He’s a nauseating excuse for a politician. He really needs a come to Jesus moment, though I think it would be a waste of time.
POS
Great job Common sense governor protect the rights of women in his state. Anyone who thinks it’s fair for confused men to compete in women’s sports is wrong. If you want to be transgender then that’s fine. I don’t care.
This is exactly the headline our dear (please note sarcastic use) FL gov wanted, and it is precisely why he waited to sign this on June 1st. Thanks for bringing him more coverage. You'd think Trump's manipulation of the media would have resulted in a few lessons learned, but no.
This shows the cruelty is the point
Jerk
'Targeting transgender athletes', eh? That's a weird way of phrasing 'protecting female athletes'
I think he did the right thing.
The bill targets none. It protects girls sports. intentionally uses the word 'targeting' to stir division.
'Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signs bill to protect womens sports in Florida'. There, I fixed the headline for you to be more accurate as to what is being done and not just push your political narrative.
dirtbag- let's cancelRon
Can someone tell me what is wrong with having a transgender league of sports ?
How do they enforce it, have a person inspect your body before the race?
Florida Governor signs bill protecting women in sports on first day of pride month. The entire country applauds. There, I fixed it for you
Blatant gerrymandering has kept the GOO in control of Florida for 20+ years. They can basically do anything, if anyone calls them out on their BS they’re labeled unpatriotic. The GOP way…marginalize and cheat.
