A job well done. 👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
They have to find a way to deny the existence of bans bc they know how unpopular & unAmerican it is.

schools are better than any
in maga states…..
Arkansas doesn't need one, though, because all the kids there are being put to work in the mines.
“I kindly ask anyone who can help to reach out to me or share my story. I am in urgent need of help to provide milk, diapers, and warm clothes for my little one due to the difficult conditions caused by the war. Any support would make a huge difference in our lives.”🍉🇵🇸💔🍼😭

are necessary.

I don't know the answer. Does someone?
One effective way to test a law is to see if it yields common-sense results in absurd situations. Aka eductio ad absurdum testing.
How would this law handle this case, if it occurred?
When crafting laws one must consider these perverse cases.
What books has Florida banned? Is this for the entire state, for bookstores, for libraries, or only for school libraries.
Please provide details!

Well done Governor 👏🏼
Not every library will have every book, nor every book be assigned as reading. Banning takes away choice there.
