Lawsuits Mount Against DeSantis Administration's Actions on Pro-Palestinian Groups in Florida

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and his administration are facing legal challenges on two fronts. The University of Florida chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine, with support from the ACLU, filed a lawsuit after the chancellor of Florida's university system ordered schools to disband the chapters, claiming it violated their First Amendment rights. Meanwhile, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected the DeSantis administration's request to enforce a law aimed at preventing children from attending drag shows, with a judge previously ruling that the law violated First Amendment rights.
