Florida Republicans are trying for the fourth year in a row to ban flags atop government buildings, including Pride or Black Lives Matter banners.
Filed by Republicans Rep. David Borrero and Sen. Clay Yarborough, the new bill would ban flags referencing politics, race, gender, or sexual orientation being flown on government-owned buildings.
This is the fourth time Borrero, from Miami, has carried this legislation. Fortunately, it’s died each year before reaching either the House or Senate floor.
This proposal follows a summer of state action to remove LGBTQ visibility, when the Republican Governor Ron DeSantis ordered the removal of rainbow crosswalks and street murals in cities across Florida.
Won't be erased!!
