Original Note:
Newsom is mistaken. In July, a Florida law went into effect that allows parents to register concerns about books taught in schools and petition local districts to remove them. While school districts can remove books, Florida has not banned any books at the state level. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2022/08/25/fact-check-fake-list-banned-florida-books-circulates-widely-online/7876468001/
