Florida’s “Anti-Drag Performances” Law Will Remain Blocked, Through All Appeals — As Gov. DeSantis Just Lost, At The Supremes, Seeking Cert.

The posture of this case differs substantially from the Friends of George’s case (which we’ve been covering) — as does the actual text of the law — less substantially.

But just as in Memphis this past summer, a USDC Court in Florida earlier had enjoined Florida Senate Bill 1438 (as signed by Gov. DeSantis in May) — as likely violating the federal First Amendment. And the Supremes just refused to change that.

So, this one is on a normal Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals timeline once again — and the law may not be enforced anywhere in all of Florida, against… anyone. Here’s the bit, signed by six Justices, overnight:

…In sum, because this Court is not likely to grant certiorari on the only issue presented in Florida’s stay application, it is appropriate for the Court to deny the application….

Now you know. Sanity… bit by bit… is making a comeback. Grin.
