YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed legislation banning state funding for diversity, equity and inclusion programs at the state's public universities.

RELATEDDeSantis proposes measures aimed at ‘woke’ ideologies in education

A New College board revamped by DeSantis abolished the school's DEI office, and the college's interim president recently fired the diversity dean, a precursor to what other Florida universities could experience under SB 266, which was a centerpiece of DeSantis' aggressive legislative agenda this year.

As he gears up for a run for president, DeSantis has emphasized a culture war agenda against so-called "woke" policies, and universities have been a major focus. The governor has decried a campus culture that he views as overly focused on issues of racial, gender and LGBTQ equity.
