Ron DeSantis (R) takes on woke indoctrination in the workplace and schools, introducing the first of its kind legislation in the nation.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis unveiled the \u201cStop W.O.K.E. Act\u201d on Wednesday, which stands for \u201cStop Wrongs to Our Kids and Employees.\u201d The move challenges the teaching of Marxist ideologies in schools and corporate America by declaring critical race theory as an unlawful employment and education practice.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis said the proposed legislation would make clear that such teaching violates Florida\u2019s Civil Rights Act.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Today, we are taking a stand against critical race theory in our schools and in the workplace by calling for the enactment of the Stop W.O.K.E. Act.  <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/7iuEjyYKsj\">https:\/\/t.co\/7iuEjyYKsj<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ron DeSantis (@GovRonDeSantis) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/GovRonDeSantis\/status\/1471120994320494601?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 15, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cIt violates Florida standards to scapegoat someone based on their race, to say that, you know, they\u2019re inherently racist, to say that they\u2019re in a presser or pressed or anything like that. And that\u2019s good and that\u2019s important, but we also have to realize we got to do more to make sure that that actually carries today in the classrooms and in our society,\u201d stated DeSantis.<\/p>\n<p>The legislation would strip funds designated to the teaching of critical race theory from schools.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis has grown popular among many voters due to his fight for the people mentality. Over the past year, numerous polls have shown DeSantis as the frontrunner for the GOP nomination in 2024 if President Trump decides against running.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/larry-nassar-victims-reach-a-380m-settlement\/\">Larry Nassar Victims Reach A $380M Settlement<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FILE \u2013 Florida Gov.
