What Ron DeSantis’ Latest Crusade Is Really About Despite what Gov. Ron DeSantis says, his fight against street art has little to do with public safety.

Florida “will find every way they can ... to make it look like they’re trying to enforce traffic control mechanisms. But ... it’s simply a camouflage ... to erase and eliminate all or as many LGBTQ references in the state as possible.” -Mayor Levine Cava

We’ve been tracking the number of Americans who identify as transgender – soon, there will be no reliable way to measure them The federal government has erased gender identity questions from federal surveys. Researchers say it will cost them at least a decade’s worth of data.

"Though data sources are being erased by the Trump administration, the transgender population will not be."

Federal lawmakers from both sides of the aisle have spoken out against Trump's cruel action, and urge that the program be reinstated.
