DeSantis slams California Democrat over claim 'Diary of Anne Frank' banned in Florida

  • California State Senator Scott Wiener falsely claimed that Florida banned 'The Diary of Anne Frank,' which is actually part of the state's recommended curriculum according to Governor Ron DeSantis.
  • Governor DeSantis responded to Wiener's claim, calling it 'another lie debunked' and reaffirming that the book is part of the curriculum.
  • Wiener's office clarified that he was referring to a specific incident where a graphic version of the book was removed by the Hillsborough School District amid recent book bans in Florida.
  • PEN America Florida Director William Johnson remarked that book removals occurred due to the state's intimidation campaign against school officials, yet 'The Diary of Anne Frank' remains recommended reading.
