Florida's Anti-DEI Law Is So Vague It Could Cancel St. Patrick's Day — SB 1134 Breakdown

Florida just handed its governor the power to remove elected local officials for welcoming their own constituents — and wrote the law so vaguely that St. Patrick's Day, Oktoberfest, and the Jewish Film Festival have no legal protection under it. Mike Smithgall breaks down SB 1134 — the Anti-Diversity in Local Government bill — section by section: what it actually says, what its sponsor admitted he didn't know, the $1.5 billion tourism economy Florida is putting at risk, and why a federal court already struck down a narrower version of this same idea.This one isn't just an LGBTQ+ story. It's a story about who gets to govern, who gets to celebrate, and what happens when a bumper sticker becomes a statute.Full sources at atheistville.comQUESTION: The bill gives the Governor power to remove elected local officials by executive order for violating it.
