The facts
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed SB 266 in May 2023, restricting state and local spending on diversity, equity, and inclusion programs.
The city of Fort Lauderdale said it would cancel its 2027 St. Patrick's Day Parade and Pride event, citing compliance concerns with the state's anti-DEI law.
At least eight states — including Florida, Texas, and Oklahoma — have passed laws since 2023 restricting DEI programs at public institutions.
A June 2023 Pew Research survey found 52% of U.S. workers said focusing on DEI at work was a good thing, while 16% said it was bad.
Florida's Parental Rights in Education Act, expanded in 2023, also restricts classroom instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity through 12th grade.
