Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has directed the chancellor of the State University System of Florida to deactivate the Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) group. This comes after it was revealed that SJP sent out a 'toolkit' inviting members to aid Hamas in their Operation Al-Aqsa Flood terrorist activities. DeSantis called on the entire state university system of Florida to deactivate SJP chapters due to their illegal support for Hamas, a US-designated terror organization. The order has sparked debate over free speech rights and the constitutionality of shutting down SJP chapters.
FIRE urges Florida public universities *not to comply* with any state order to derecognize campus chapters of Students for Justice in Palestine due to the groups’ views or ties to the national org. Silencing students’ protected speech violates the First Amendment & is unlawful.

After @NationalSJP stated that “Palestinian students in exile are PART of this [Hamas] movement," @GovRonDeSantis has called to ban SJP from Florida campuses due to its material support for Hamas. Thank him for cracking down on terrorism: https://t.co/N2yVX9JGZN
Florida's order to shut down National Students for Justice in Palestine is clearly unconstitutional. https://t.co/JqqAWdk11V
Good on Gov DeSantis. SJP is a pro-Hamas organization that explicitly endorses terrorism against civilians. Supporters of jihadist groups do not belong in Florida. They are not welcome here. https://t.co/C1FlVTjZg7

Jonathan Chait writes that Ron DeSantis ordered state universities to ban chapters of Students for Justice in Palestine. Despite its horrific pro-terrorist beliefs, SJP has free speech rights, and DeSantis’s move is authoritarian. https://t.co/9kuAhyHYJv
