Activists who sought to block Florida’s Parental Rights in Education law settled with the state last week in an agreement that leaves the 2022 legislation intact and unchanged.

“We fought hard to ensure this law couldn’t be maligned in court, as it was in the public arena by the media and large corporate actors,” said General Counsel Ryan Newman. “We are victorious, and Florida’s classrooms will remain a safe place under the Parental Rights in Education Act.”
