Several celebrities, including Shawn Mendes and Ariana Grande have spoken up against Florida’s Don’t Say Gay bill.
Mendes tweeted in support of equality and asked people to contact their Senators and posted a link to do so.
Grande was even more vocal and called the bill “really disgusting.”
The potential law would restrict teachers from speaking about LGBTQ history, people, and other topics in Florida classrooms and give parents the right to sue educators and administrators who did so. It would also require school counselors and teachers to “out” students to their parents if they confide in a trusted adult at school. If the bill is signed into law, it would go into effect July 1.
TL;DR:
- Mendes tweeted in support of equality and asked people to contact their Senators
- Grande called the bill “really disgusting.”
