More than half of LGBTQ parents in Florida are considering moving their families to another state over concerns that a new Florida education law – known to its critics as the “Don’t Say Gay” law – stigmatizes LGBTQ identities and creates a hostile learning environment for LGBTQ children or students with LGBTQ family members.

In a report issued Tuesday by the Williams Institute, a public policy research institute based at the UCLA of Law, and Clark University in Massachusetts, 56 percent of LGBTQ parents surveyed said they were considering leaving Florida over concerns about how the new law may impact their children and family. Another 17 percent said they had already taken steps to do so.

“I am terrified that I would need to make the decision to leave Florida and leave my parents,” one respondent said. “The idea of having to leave to protect my child and my partner is scary but one I am willing to do.”

Is there a “fund me” set up where one can donate to help them leave?

Check my math, but 56 percent of LGBTQ parents surveyed equals ... 10 out of 18 LGBTQ parents surveyed.

Bad news, because probably 1/3rd or more of those who actually leave will wind up in GA.

“stigmatizes LGBTQ identities and creates a hostile learning environment for LGBTQ children”

Oh, come on, drama queens. It keeps teaching your perversions to little kids out of the schools where it most assuredly does not belong. It makes schools focus on academics.

“I’ll believe it when I see it”

Exactly.

“Celebrity X says he/she is leaving the totalitarian USA.” — never happened
“Half of San Franciscans say they will leave the city in the next three years” — never happened
“So-and-so says he/she will do XYZ if ABC” — never happened

What you DO see is the ultra-rich of all walks of life leaving ultra-high tax places.

Good news for those remaining in Florida.

Maybe Kathy Hochul or Gavin Newsom should will give them a tax incentive to come to their states.

Most Floridians are saying “please leave”.

Maybe the state should consider buying them bus tickets. Or handing out U-haul coupons.

This could bring down the pressure on higher home and rent costs for those who want to move from blue state locations like San Francisco, Chicago and New York.

The governors of these states should set up a cooperative clearing house to facillitate the moves.

Looks like a win/win solution for everybody involved.

Agreed; I’m a Californian and even I say send them all over here.

We already have so many QUEERS, LESBOS, FREAKS, WEIRDOS, DICK LOPPERS, TIT CHOPPERS and BABY BUTCHERS that they will all fit right in.

Just tell them to bring ALL their money so GREUSOME NEWSOM can steal it all for the WETBACKS and WELFARE QUEENS AND KINGS.
