Court rules Florida's 'stop woke' law restricting business diversity training is unconstitutional
pbs.org/newshour/politics/court-rules-floridas-stop-woke-law-restricting-business-diversity-training-is-unconstitutional
Quick Glance: Fl. Law 'Stop Woke Act' Blocked by Court Decision
- A federal appeals court decision on Monday prevented the enforcement of a law in Florida, supported by Governor Ron DeSantis, that limits how private companies can teach diversity and inclusion in the workplace.

- Julia Friedland, a spokeswoman for DeSantis, stated in a release on Tuesday that the governor's office is 'considering all options for future appeals.'
- The 'Stop Woke Act' was passed in March 2022 by the Republican-controlled Florida legislature and was a key priority for DeSantis, who labeled it as the 'Individual Freedom Measure.'
