About the Event
On Thursday, April 29, 2021 at 9:30 am EST the Florida Coalition for Transgender Liberation (FC4TL), ACLU of Florida, Southern Poverty Law Center, Women’s March Florida, Florida Council of Churches, Dear Trans Kids Project and allied partner organizations are hosting an online press conference to speak out against the corrupt passage of the trans youth athlete ban by the Florida Legislature through an amendment process to a completely unrelated charter school bill despite serious economic consequences to the state of Florida and the damage this bill will cause to transgender, intersex, and gender non-conforming youth across the state.
Florida Coalition for Transgender Liberation and our allies will NOT stand by while this horrendous legislation comes to pass in this corrupt way.  We demand that Governor DeSantis protect transgender children and Florida’s economy and VETO the legislation when it comes to him to sign into law.
