Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is facing a lawsuit from the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) over the state's ban on pro-Palestinian student groups. The lawsuit alleges that the state is violating students' free speech rights by attempting to deactivate and defund the SJP chapters at the University of Florida and the University of South Florida. This legal action comes after the Desantis administration in Florida made efforts to curtail or shut down pro-Palestinian student groups that have expressed support or solidarity with Hamas. The ACLU has challenged Florida's ban on the SJP chapters, arguing that the state is violating students' free speech. The University of Florida's chapter of Students for Justice in Palestine is suing university leaders and Ron DeSantis for violating its First Amendment rights. The ACLU and Palestine Legal are also involved in the lawsuit. The lawsuit claims that the state's ban on the pro-Palestinian student group is violating the First Amendment rights of an organization that promotes peace.
