A Florida GOP state representative filed a proposal expanding the state's so-called "Don't Say Gay" bill.
The bill, HB 1223, would prohibit instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity up to eighth grade.
The bill's creator, GOP Rep. Adam Anderson, said in a statement to the Orlando Sentinel that the bill "promotes parental rights, transparency, and state standards in Florida schools."
LGBTQ advocacy groups, such as Equality Florida, condemned the bill.
DeSantis and Florida Republicans responded by stripping Disney of its special tax district and taking control of the area around Disney World.
