TL;DR Summary

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has acknowledged that the state's book banning efforts may have gone too far, signing a new bill to limit the number of challenges residents without children can make to one per month. Critics argue that the legislation, including the "Don't Say Gay" law and the "Stop WOKE" law, targets the LGBTQ community and restricts discussions about Black history and diversity. The laws coincide with DeSantis' presidential ambitions and are part of a broader trend of conservative-led efforts to ban books across the country.
