Video: The business response to Florida's “Stop WOKE Act"

Our Staff
November 09, 2022

Business leaders have filed a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of Florida’s HB 7, the Stop Wrongs to Our Kids and Employees (WOKE) Act, claiming the law violates employers’ free speech rights by censoring ideas contrary to government officials’ preferred narrative.

In late August, in a victory for free speech, a federal judge in Florida suspended enforcement of the employer provisions of the Act, citing the bill’s inherent disregard for federal anti-discrimination laws. Watch and learn what your business can do about anti-business and anti-free speech legislation in Florida, and in preparation for similar legislation that could be replicated in other states.
