Please protect our children against this travesty.
It’s only the beginning of opening a Pandora’s box.
Gov Scott, please join the other states in sending a message to Obama that we will not share restrooms with whom ever wants to wander in. Just think if you grandchild or wife were to go to the restroom and some unsavory low life was just waiting for this chance to follow them in. Sand firm against this stupid, idiotic and immoral law that is trying to be forced down our throats like all the other. To state school funds will be withheld is blackmail, and congress not Obama is the only one to dictate allocation of funds. Thank you in advance as I know you will do the right thing and stand firm against this.
The protection of women and children needs to be the priority to the insane mandate by the Obama Administration. We know of those Republicans that voted yes to this legalization of lewd behaviors and they will reap what they have sown in the next election. We expect our elected Governor to represent and lead in the direction of the will of the people, expeditiously. Stop subjecting our children to this abuse immediately.
Governor Scott please stand up against President Obama and protect our children.
I will never let my grand daughters go into fitting rooms, open bathrooms by theirselves again. Ohio needs to join in this.
Pleasecprotect our children
We need to protect our children, I have two great grandsughters of school age. Governor Scott please let us going the other states against the Obama Bathroom mandate.
Step up and protect our children!
Step up and protect our children!
BE a Man and help stop this evil….
Governor Scott, Please show leadership on this issue by following these 11 states to take action and stand up publicly to protect our children and join the lawsuit against the US Department of Justice and Department of Education’s unilateral redefinition of Title IX to include “gender identity.” I don’t think a man or woman don’t need to be in the same restrooms. It is crazy when you have 99% of the people against this, This is wrong…
PLEASE Governor Scott…join the other states suing our so called government….over this OUTRAGEOUS move. One of the reason We live in Florida..is that we know it was a GREAT place to raise our kids and now our kids are raising our grandchildren here and we are a huge part of their lives. There is enough insanity in our wold today then having to worry about our kids and ourselves using the restroom. Governor Scott you have always done an amazing job….PLEASE DONT let us down now. We need you to stand AGAINST obama.
Thank you for all you do! God Bless America and God Bless Florida???
Stop the stupidity. You are male OR female. Don’t put people at risk
Our children MUST be protected!!
