Protests Outside Homes Are Now Illegal in Florida After Governor DeSantis Signs Bill Into Law
On May 16 Florida's Governor Ron DeSantis signed a bill into state law, which prohibits protesting outside of homes. With the signing of HB1571 - the residential picketing bill - it is now illegal for people to protest outside the homes of others without their permission. It's intended to prevent situations such as those that have arisen recently where protestors gathered outside the homes of U.S. supreme court justices in anticipation of Roe Vs. Wade being overturned.
