The NAACP issued a formal travel advisory for Florida on Saturday in response to what the organization described as Gov. Ron DeSantis' "aggressive attempts to erase Black history and to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in Florida schools."
The civil rights organization is the latest to caution travelers against visiting Florida; the League of United Latin American Citizens and LGBTQ advocacy group Equality Florida previously issued travel advisories.
"Under the leadership of Governor DeSantis, the state of Florida has become hostile to Black Americans and in direct conflict with the democratic ideals that our union was founded upon," NAACP President & CEO Derrick Johnson said. "He should know that democracy will prevail because its defenders are prepared to stand up and fight. We're not backing down, and we encourage our allies to join us in the battle for the soul of our nation."
CBS News reached out to DeSantis' office for a comment about the travel advisory. DeSantis is expected to launch a presidential campaign in the coming days.
The DeSantis administration in January blocked the introduction of an Advanced Placement course for high school students that focuses on African American studies.
"Florida is openly hostile toward African Americans, people of color and LGBTQ+ individuals," the NAACP travel notice states. "Before traveling to Florida, please understand that the state of Florida devalues and marginalizes the contributions of, and the challenges faced by African Americans and other communities of color."
The NAACP previously issued a travel advisory in 2017 to people planning to visit Missouri.
The League of United Latin American Citizens advisory cited strict Florida laws dealing with immigrants. Organization president Domingo Garcia called the new immigration laws "hostile and dangerous," saying they presented a clear and present danger to Latinos.
"Florida is a dangerous, hostile environment for law-abiding Americans and immigrants," Garcia said.

DeSantis’ team fired back at the civil rights group’s claims. “As Governor DeSantis announced last week, Florida is seeing record-breaking tourism. This is nothing more than a stunt,” a spokesperson for the politician said, according to CBS News. The timing comes as the governor is allegedly preparing to launch a presidential campaign this week.

The black people who live there should be given money to move out of the state.
