Judge Partially Blocks Desantis Anti Wake Law

The law, which went into effect July 1, is a key component of DeSantis’ war on “wokeness ideology” and was intended to prevent workplace teachings or mandated activities that suggest a person is privileged or oppressed based on necessarily his race, color. gender or national origin. Two Florida-based employers who want to require their staff to attend diversity and inclusion training, and a consultant who provides such instruction, have sought an injunction on the portions of the law dealing with company training. Walker said the law is “backwards” when it comes to the First Amendment because it allows the state to burden free speech. “If Florida truly believes we live in a post-racial society, then let her make her case. But she can’t win the argument by silencing her opponents. Because, without justification, IFA attacks ideas, not behavior,” he wrote . The judge also noted that the court will decline to issue a stay of the injunction pending a potential appeal by the state. CNN has reached out to DeSantis’ office for comment on the decision. The decision comes amid DeSantis’ latest attack on “ideological corporate power” — as soon as next week, Florida pension fund managers could be barred from considering the social impact of their financial decisions.
