US appeals court strikes down key part of Florida law restricting campus race and gender discussions

A federal appeals court struck down a key portion of Florida's Stop Woke Act, ruling that the law's restrictions on college professors discussing race and gender concepts violate the US Constitution's first amendment. The 11th Circuit Court of Appeal, in a 2-1 decision, found the law's higher education provisions unconstitutional, marking another legal challenge for Governor Ron DeSantis's policies.
