A reporter recently asked Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) if he supported “more mainstream human rights, like gay marriage and sexual orientation of adults” and DeSantis refused to give a yes or no answer.
Instead, DeSantis gave a roundabout answer in which he defended Florida’s law banning discussions of LGBTQ+ issues in public schools through 12th grade.
DeSantis said, “…It is inappropriate to be having these students exposed to the curriculum about things like transgender ideology, it’s wrong for teachers to probe their sexuality, but that’s just saying what’s appropriate for, uh, for education and we want to focus on the basics.”
But the reporter reiterated to DeSantis that they were asking about adults, not children.
DeSantis ignored the clarification and called on another reporter.
The governor has supported several anti-LGBTQ+ policies under the guise of protecting children from sexualization, but this non-answer suggests he’s also unwilling to support the rights of LGBTQ+ adults.
According to a survey from the Williams Institute, DeSantis’s ruthless campaign against LGBTQ+ youth in his state has led more than half of LGBTQ+ parents to consider leaving the state. The survey found that LGBTQ+ families feel less safe after the Don’t Say Gay law’s passage and DeSantis’ numerous attacks.
