The Florida law that limits drag shows in the state will remain blocked, the Supreme Court said Thursday, dealing a blow to a key initiative championed by Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis.

Florida had asked the high court to narrow a lower court’s injunction that stopped the law from being enforced statewide. The justices declined to do so.

Conservative Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito and Neil Gorsuch said they would have allowed the law to take effect.

    peaceful assembly and free speech are both violated by this law. This is one of the few laws that possibly violates a single amendment twice.

      Both rights are often and constitutionally infringed. Leave legal arguments to people with even a passing grasp of the subject.
