1. Florida teachers are being told to remove all books from their classroom libraries OR FACE FELONY PROSECUTION
The new policy is based on the premise that teachers are using books to "groom" students or indoctrinate them with leftist ideologies.

UPDATE: This is also happening in Duval County, FL.
A principal sent this note: "We are being asked to restrict classroom libraries...sadly you will need to remove student access...I will be the one with a felony if we are found in violation...I wish I was making this all up"
Keep in mind, teachers and principals can be charged with a THIRD DEGREE FELONY.
The Florida Department of Education just published a training reminding teachers of that.
You know what else is a third-degree felony in Florida?
MANSLAUGHTER
What is to stop teachers simply moving to another state where they can do their job without fear of being put in prison.
@zleap @juddlegum Partners, family, community ties. For many people it's not that easy to pack up and go.
Some might also feel that they would be abandoning their pupils. As long as they are there, they might still be able to do some good.
Good point we can help by spreading he word, perhaps if enough people boycott Florida in 2023 over this it will send a message.
