Ron DeSantis berated a reporter who asked him about the controversial sex education bill currently being debated in the state.At a press conference at the Strawberry Festival in Plant City, WFLA reporter Evan Donovan asked DeSantis about the Parental Rights in Education legislation, which critics have dubbed the "Don't Say Gay" bill.The bill aims to ban the discussion of sexual orientation and gender identity in certain grades at Florida schools.
The Republican-controlled Florida Senate is expected to vote Tuesday on a version that was approved by the state's House of Representatives.The bill has been met with widespread condemnation from LGBT groups, Democrats including President Joe Biden, and has sparked mass protests in schools across Florida.On Monday, DeSantis interrupted a question from Donovan while he was asking him about the so-called "Don't Say Gay" bill."Does it say that in the bill?
Does it say that in the bill? I'm asking you to tell me what's in the bill, because you are pushing false narratives," DeSantis said.
