Black Democratic lawmakers hosted a press conference on Thursday to address the attorney general’s opinion concluding that state laws requiring racial discrimination are unconstitutional under the U.S. and Florida Constitutions. Legislators discussed the implications of the opinion across multiple areas of state government and public life. They will discuss civil rights and equal protection, healthcare equity, commerce and small business development and more. “With a single document, 80 protections put in place over the decades were put on the chopping block,” LaVon Bracy Davis said.
