A local questions the Florida governor's statement that 'Utah, like Florida, is where freedom works,' pointing out that women, members of the LGBTQ community, and public school children have had their freedoms infringed upon by Republican policies.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis gave the keynote address at the Utah Republican Party 2023 Organizing Convention at Utah Valley University's UCCU Center on Saturday, April 22, 2023.“Utah, like Florida, is where freedom works.
Really! Freedom for whom? For members of the LGBTQ community, their parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins whose right to be respected, loved, and cared for has been taken away by the government? Certainly not! Republicans have to control and endanger the lives of this population apparently because alternative lifestyles are somehow seen as abhorrent.
Really! Freedom for whom? For children in public schools who deserve the very best education possible, requiring robust funding so that we can train and retain the best educators and programs possible? Certainly not! Let’s take funding away from public education and give it to Republicans who want to pretend they are creating schools that can educate better than a centuries old educational system.
Really! Freedom for whom? For the cougars in our gorgeous mountains who have a right to exist just as any Republican has a right to exist without threat to one’s life? Certainly not! Kill them any time, anyway, anywhere. Freedom when it suits the Republicans. Infringement of freedom when Democrats try to protect women’s rights. Infringement of freedom when Democrats try to protect LGBTQ rights. Infringement of freedom when Democrats try to protect public education. Infringement of freedom when Democrats try to protect cougars.
