After years of cruelty and attacks on our rights by DeSantis, the tide is turning — and the resistance is winning critical battles. Thousands of parents, families, and volunteers across the state are showing up to challenge DeSantis' extremist agenda of book banning, censorship, and government overreach at every turn. And while the work is hard, we remain committed to fighting every fight. Join Us.

❌ Book Bans ❌ Emboldening racism ❌ Censoring history ❌ Attacking LGBTQ kids ❌ Banning abortion This is Governor Ron DeSantis’ Florida — and it has left a path of destruction, ignoring our real problems while pursuing his agenda of censorship and government overreach. Enough is enough. We want a different and better future for us all. #DeSantisFailedUs
