A federal judge in Florida has dismissed a suit against the state’s “don’t say gay” law and refused to issue a preliminary injunction blocking its enforcement.U.S.
District Judge Wendy Berger, appointed to her position by Donald Trump, made her ruling Thursday, the Associated Press reports.
She said those who brought the suit — LGBTQ+ students and families, plus an association of LGBTQ+ community centers — did not have legal standing to challenge the law.
She also said that bullying in school, which the plaintiffs expressed concerns about, “is simply a fact of life.”Berger said the plaintiffs could file an amended version of the suit and gave them until November 3 to do so.
