Teachers unions appeal Florida law requiring educators to use birth-assigned pronouns, claiming First Amendment violation.

Teachers unions in Florida, supported by the American Federation of Teachers and National Education Association, are urging a federal appeals court to uphold a lower court's decision, challenging a Florida law requiring educators to use pronouns aligned with students' birth-assigned sex. The law allegedly violates First Amendment rights, claiming it singles out transgender educators and prevents them from using students' preferred titles and pronouns. This case is part of Florida's recent legislative focus on transgender people.
