Florida’s state government is passing restrictive laws targeting women and LGBT people.

 
We spoke to activists on the front lines in Florida to get their perspective and learn how they’re resisting.

I am 30 years old and I'm able to get pregnant at this point in my life. 

I'm also an immigrant and I'm queer. And so I think all of these restrictions and all of these bans and every public policy that is getting passed in our government right now is a direct attack to 

me, which makes me very upset. 

And I will not stop fighting until the world that I want to see is a reality for everybody. I think public policies are very important and as regular street people we see them as something foreign. 

But the truth is that public policies affect where we wake up, the food we eat, the things we drink, the streets we drive in, the type of education our children will receive. 

And I think it’s very important that we know and get educated in what happens in our government. 

Because these policies affect us all personally. 

Abortion restrictions are an attack to us, to people who can get pregnant, to immigrants. And abortion is going to continue happening It is not something that's going to we're going to go away at any time. 

What people are banning is safe abortions. That’s why it’s important to stay alert, stay educated and able to vote.
