Freedom of Speech and Religious Expression in Public Schools

Summary

The bill amends the Florida Statutes to require school districts to treat all voluntary religious, political or ideological speech the same as secular speech. It lets students wear expressive clothing, include viewpoints in assignments, and form clubs or prayer groups without penalty. It also obliges districts to adopt a limited‑public‑forum policy and creates a private right of action for anyone harmed by violations.
