Hamburger Mary's suing Florida Gov. DeSantis
A popular national restaurant chain that features drag performances to which families with young children are invited is taking on Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis over a new law restricting such shows. The owners of Hamburger Mary's Bar & Grille in Orlando said they have filed a lawsuit against DeSantis and the State of Florida in federal court, claiming the "Protection of Children Act" (SB 1438) is in violation of First and Fourteenth Amendment rights. Also named as a defendant is the Secretary of the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, Melanie Griffin.
