Florida Governor Ron DeSantis kicked off Pride Month by signing the state's first anti-LGBTQ law since 1997 today when he signed an anti-trans sports bill into law.

As many begin to celebrate Pride, let's remember this legislative session has brought us:

337 anti-LGBTQ bills

150 anti-trans bills

75 anti-trans sports bills, with 8 states passing them into law

40 anti-trans healthcare bills

We are still fighting bills in several states. Stay tuned for more action items.
