TL;DR Summary

Chinese citizens living and working in Florida are suing the state over a new law that bans them from buying property in the state. The American Civil Liberties Union is representing the plaintiffs, arguing that the law is unconstitutional and discriminatory. The ban would also impact Chinese Americans and people of Asian descent. Proponents of the bill argue that it will protect US national security. The legislation focuses heavily on restricting sales to Chinese nationals and entities. The law has left many in the state's Asian community uncertain and fearful of their futures.
