Florida Republicans pass discriminatory bills targeting transgender community and educators.

The Florida legislature has passed a "bathroom bill" that prohibits transgender people from using public restrooms that do not align with their sex assigned at birth. The bill, known as the "Safety in Private Spaces Act," would apply to public schools and universities, state and local government buildings, prisons, and jails. The bill would make it a second-degree misdemeanor for people to use public restrooms or changing facilities that do not align with their sex assigned at birth. The LGBTQ advocacy group Human Rights Campaign criticized the legislation as "a pernicious, degrading, and systematic attempt to dehumanize one of our most marginalized communities."
