Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed this week a bill allowing the presence of chaplains and "patriotic organizations" in public schools, as well as their distributions of "certain materials," state outlet Local 10 reported.

"Faith leaders and civic organizations are important additional resources for students who may be facing challenges or need to build community and camaraderie," said DeSantis. "I'm pleased to be able to expand the variety of options that students have at their disposal in school and we have no doubt that these options will enhance the experiences of our students."
