MAYOR ADAMS’ STATEMENT ON SIGNING OF FLORIDA’S “DON’T SAY GAY” BILL INTO LAW

 

New York City Mayor Eric Adams today released the following statement after Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed the state Legislature’s “Don’t Say Gay” bill, which prohibits classroom sexual orientation and gender identity education in elementary schools:

 

“The extremist culture war targeting our LGBTQ+ community is hateful and harmful. Florida’s ‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill is the latest shameful measure.

 

“We’re the city of Stonewall. We fight for our LGBTQ+ neighbors, especially our children.

 

“To the families living in fear of this state-sponsored discrimination: You're welcome in New York City. Our arms and hearts are wide open, embracing every child of every identity. Always.”
