Pride of the Treasure Coast, an LGBTQ+ Pride organization based in Port St. Lucie, has announced it will not hold it's planned parade this year, and will make its Pridefest a 21 and over event.
In a Facebook post Wednesday, Pride of TC said they are concerned for the safety of the LGBTQ+ community.
"The political climate that we are currently in has us all very concerned for our community," the post read. "...with the likelihood that the Governor will sign the latest bill into effect this evening, that we will need to be on the side of caution."
SB 1438, the "Protection of Children Act," would penalize a person or business for "knowingly admitting a child to an adult live performance."
Those Florida H8Rs object to having 11 year olds exposed to "pride."

Good. I would have no objection if these parades were modest, but they never are.
The parade is allowed. It’s allowed in front of kids. It’s just not allowed to include nudity, twerking, and blatantly sexual acts in front of kids.
It’s kind of telling that they don’t want to do it if they can’t be lewd in front of kids.

@LuFins-Dad I'm reading conflicting stories. Some of the RWEC says that the parade is cancelled, but the actual tweet from Pride of the Treasure Coast doesn't say that.
I can't find the tweet, only a screenshot from another source. In one sentence they say "it will now be a 21 and older event." And then say "we have to cancel our plans."
