Florida signs bill into law banning protests outside homes

Governor Ron DeSantis signs law, citing picketing outside homes of US supreme court justices following leak of draft abortion ruling

Protests outside homes are now banned in Florida after the state's rightwing Republican governor, Ron DeSantis, signed a bill into law prohibiting such demonstrations.

DeSantis, who is both an ally and potential 2024 rival to Donald Trump, is a rising star in Republican circles as he courts the party's rightwing base and eyes a possible White House run.
