Bad bills we defeated:
Lwa sou Prim pou Avòtman an: SB 1374 / HB 663 by Senator Jonathan Martin and Representative Shane Abbott
This bill created a cause of action for the parent, spouse, sibling, abuser, or rapist of a patient to sue for $100,000 in damages if the patient accessed abortion pills by mail or through telehealth. The bill intentionally targeted telehealth and shield law providers and attempted to limit the distribution of abortion pills by mail. House Bill 663 could have turned family members against each other and abusers into bounty hunters.
Kay: Was not placed on an agenda.
Sena a: Was not placed on an agenda.
Status: Failed.
Endangering Our Kids Act: SB 166 / HB 173 by Senator Erin Grall and Representative Kim Kendall
This bill would have banned STI treatment, most crisis mental health resources (such as a suicide prevention hotline), health surveys, and birth control for minors who could not involve a parent.
Contact information for the final House committee that considered this bill was previously available.
Advocates urged constituents to contact their lawmakers to oppose this bill.

Kay: Died on Second Reading
Sena a: Died in Committee
Status: Failed.
Deklarasyon Dwa Abizè yo: SB 164 / HB 289 by Senator Erin Grall and Representative Sam Greco
This deceptive bill would have created a slippery slope that could have led to fertilized eggs and embryos having the same rights as a living person. That meant that for a pregnant patient, lawyers—not doctors—would have been consulted if they needed health care, including in an emergency. This could have jeopardized IVF, chemotherapy, and abortion access if the partner, abuser, or rapist of a pregnant patient was able to sue for the loss or termination of the pregnancy.
Advocates urged constituents to email their Representative and Senator to oppose SB 164.
Supporters were encouraged to take action through Planifikasyon Paran yo.
A fact sheet from Planifikasyon Paran yo was made available.
Kay: Passed the House floor, with 76 votes in favor and 34 opposed.
Sena a: Passed two of three committees.
Status: Failed.
Lwa sou Andoktrinasyon Elèv yo: SB 1090 / HB 1071 by Senator Erin Grall and Representative Dana Trabulsy
This sweeping bill would have required students to watch a medically inaccurate video such as “Baby Olivia” from a national anti-abortion extremist group, banned student clubs from engaging in political or social issues, and forced parents to proactively opt students in to receive reproductive health education instead of the previous opt-out option.
Advocates encouraged constituents to take action through Planifikasyon Paran yo.
Kay: Passed the House floor, with 82 votes in favor and 31 opposed.
Sena a: A version of this bill passed that removed the areas of concern.
Status: Failed.
Barriers to IVF & Fertility Services: SB 1044 / HB 993 by Senator Erin Grall and Representative Jenna Persons-Mulicka
This bill created new, unnecessary obstacles to IVF and fertility treatment by forcing families to navigate politically motivated and intrusive requirements under the guise of “informed consent.”
Kay: Was not placed on an agenda.
Sena a: Was not placed on an agenda.
Status: Failed.
Restricting Family Building & Surrogacy: SB 1680 / HB 1487 by Senator Erin Grall and Representative Monique Miller
This bill attacked the freedom to build a family by closing off long-standing pathways to parenthood, especially for LGBTQ+ people and others who relied on assisted reproductive technology (ART).
Kay: Was not placed on an agenda.
Sena a: Was not placed on an agenda.
Status: Failed. *
*Language restricting surrogacy contracts for or with anyone from a “foreign country of concern” passed in HB 905.
Don’t Say Gay or Trans at Work: SB 1642 / HB 641 by Senator Stan McClain and Representative Rachel Plakon
This bill forced extreme anti-LGBTQ ideology into the workplace by controlling how people referred to themselves and others on the job. It would have created a license to discriminate against transgender Floridians in government workplaces by promoting misgendering and banning job applicants from identifying as transgender or nonbinary. The bill would also have prohibited LGBTQ-related cultural competency training for employees of businesses that received state funding, making workplaces across Florida less safe and less respectful.
Advocates urged constituents to contact their lawmakers to oppose this bill.
Kay: Passed all committees and was ready for the House floor but was not placed on an agenda.
Sena a: Passed one of three committees and was not placed on an agenda.
Status: Failed.
Entèdiksyon Drapo Fyète: SB 426 / HB 347 by Senator Clay Yarborough and Representative David Borrero
This bill had been reintroduced for the fourth consecutive year, without addressing constitutional deficiencies noted by staff in prior legislative sessions. It was an overreaching effort to deny LGBTQ visibility, much like ripping up rainbow crosswalks in front of Pulse and other street murals around the state, sparking tremendous local backlash. The bill was sweeping—banning any display or representation of a rainbow flag on government property, from a lapel pin to a coffee mug, as the bill sponsor had said.
Advocates urged constituents to contact their lawmakers to oppose this bill.
Kay: Was not placed on an agenda.
Sena a: Was not placed on an agenda.
Status: Failed.
Ekspansyon Entèdiksyon Liv: SB 1692 / HB 1119 by Senator Stan McClain and Representative Doug Bankson
This bill would have expanded book banning and censorship in Florida’s K-12 schools by discarding a long-standing constitutional standard, making it easier to challenge and remove educational materials.
Advocates urged constituents to contact their lawmakers to oppose the bill.
Kay: Passed the House floor, 84 in support, 28 against.
Sena a: Was not placed on an agenda.
Status: Failed.
Bad bills that were passed:
Entèdi Aktivis: SB 1632 / HB 1471 by Senator Erin Grall and Representative Hillary Cassel
This bill created a vague new designation of “domestic terrorist organization” for organizations engaging in allegedly dangerous activities intended to “coerce” the public or influence government policy “by intimidation or coercion.” This type of unfettered censorship struck at the core of democracy.
Kay: Passed the House floor, 81 in favor, 26 against.
Sena a: A different version passed the Senate floor, 25 pou, 11 kont; it went back to the House and passed 80 in favor, 25 opposed.
Status: Passed.
Kont Divèsite nan Gouvènman Lokal la: SB 1134 / HB 1001 by Senator Clay Yarborough and Representative Dean Black
This bill used the state as a sledgehammer to stop cities and counties from taking any action that recognized or responded to differences based on race, sex, ethnicity, gender identity, or sexual orientation, with limited exceptions. It effectively banned local governments from actions like hosting or supporting Prides, offering LGBTQ+ cultural competency training, recognizing Black History Month, or running women and minority-owned business programs.
Advocates encouraged constituents to contact their lawmakers to oppose this bill.
Kay: Passed the House floor, 77 pou, 37 kont.
Sena a: Passed the Senate floor, 25 pou, 11 kont.
Status: Passed.
Nouvo Baryè pou Vòt: SB 1334 / HB 991 by Senator Erin Grall and Representative Jenna Persons-Mulicka

Advocates encouraged constituents to call their lawmakers and send emails to oppose the bill.
Kay: Passed the House floor, 83 in support, 31 opposed.
Sena a: A different version passed the Senate floor, 27 pou, 12 kont; it went back to the House and passed 77 in favor, 28 against.

Status: Failed.
Parental Rights in Health Education: SB 1492 / HB 331 by Senator Tracie Davis and Representative Dianne Hart
