accused Florida of cherry-picking evidence and performing incomplete research.

“The current standards set by numerous professional organizations appear to follow a preferred political ideology instead of the highest level of generally accepted medical science,” he wrote. “Florida must do more to protect children from politics-based medicine.” “This interferes with the rights of parents,” Howell said, drawing attention to DeSantis’ crusade for parental rights when it comes to teaching kids about race, gender identity and sexual orientation in the classroom.

Why? Honestly why?

Wow this Hitler of Florida must be so uncomfortable with his own sexuality that he is so scared of anyone different we see guys like this all the time and they get caught in the men’s room soliciting sex to us it’s called karma

Should be a law that the parents also get charged with child abuse/endangerment and have the children taken from them.

Instead of trying to make our kids safer at school and church, he does this. Disgusting. GunReformNow

You mean DeCastro Florida is moving into a fascist State like Cuba. Where the head of State does whatever the F he wants.

Um dictator much?

He's a DictatorDeSantis. Sucks for babies born with ambiguous genitalia and their parents.

Why are people so mean to other people…….it’s like they don’t care about people…

Biden needs to take a cue from this guy as do other democrats.

This guy looks like he's loads of fun at parties. nerd funpolice negativenancy

Finally someone is making sense.

Florida is a s-hole state

He's a monster. But I bet he's doing all this to appeal to the right wing base, so he can get their votes for president in 2024.

It’s so weird he puts so much energy into anti-trans efforts but not to help the majority of Floridians.

I'm а nudе mоdеl, rаtе mу рhоtоs

Best Gov in the country

Trump normalized political abuse of power enabling arrogant, cowardly dictators like DeathSentence to come out the woodwork

Michael_AW77 This guy is saviour. Protecting kids from being chemically castrated and sterilised to validate an ideology.

Children can’t consent, pretty simple logic here.

Wanting to physically mutilate a child is as sick as it gets. Shame on all of you.

BAN BAN BAN...it's all that DeSantis does!

I think this makes sense, Medicaid is so people can get by, and minors are obviously, minors.

Families should wait until the child is 18. Enough time for them to go through the early stages of puberty and to think on the matter 😌

If you aren’t cognitively aware enough by 18 to drink, smoke or buy a gun, why should you be able to alter your body? Allowing children to make these decisions is crazy!

So freaking based

deray Such ignorance

they're all just a bunch of 2022 puritans.

daveweigel Good.

This is a good thing he’s fighting for, I hope he succeeds.

How dare he. Children can drink alcohol if they want to, what's wrong with permanent body altering decisions?

I'm telling ya, GovRonDeSantis is one evil m'fvker.

He becomes more like a dictator every day

Does this man believe in Human Rights?

Excellent

Keep voting Repub down there guys! See what that gets y’all! Just move the hell out!

Good!

Great!

😎

Hell yeah
