Ron DeSantis signed a sweeping package of bills targeting transgender people, in what’s been described as the most impactful series of anti-LGBT+ legislation in state history.
The bills – which restrict gender-affirming care for minors, threaten drag shows, forbid people from using bathrooms that match their gender identity, and prevent people from using their chosen pronouns at schools – were sharply criticised by LBGT+ advocates, and are out of step with established procedures for trans people back by major medical organisations like the American Medical Association.
