Trans teacher can be made to keep pronouns quiet, 11th Circuit says
- The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that a transgender school teacher did not have her First Amendment rights violated when Florida passed a law disallowing public K-12 employees from using preferred pronouns that do not correspond to the individual's sex.
- The court determined that the teacher was speaking as a government employee, not a private citizen, when addressing students in the classroom during class hours, thus failing to show a violation of her rights.
- The decision overturned a lower court's ruling that granted the teacher a preliminary injunction, deeming the statute likely to infringe on her First Amendment rights.
- Florida has recently enacted laws restricting discussion of LGBTQ+ issues in education, including the controversial 2022 Parental Rights in Education Act known as the 'Don’t Say Gay' bill.
