Florida's attempt to reinstate a ban on workplace training that addresses topics related to diversity, equity, and inclusion has been rejected by the court. The ban, which was initially put in place to prohibit what some officials referred to as 'woke' training, was deemed unconstitutional by a federal judge.
The court's decision comes after the state of Florida sought to appeal a previous ruling that struck down the ban. The ban was part of an executive order issued by the governor, aiming to prevent state contractors from providing training that included concepts such as critical race theory.
