No Loitering In Riverside CA.

Scott And Bondi's Discrimination Against LGBT Floridians
Gov. Scott has fought to maintain discrimination against LGBT Floridians since being elected.

Rosalie Whylie asked the receptionist if she could make an appointment for a pap smear. A representative from the dental clinic, who did not identify herself, told the women the dentists do not offer those types of services. But the women insisted, saying that Florida's GOP-led legislature instructed them to come to a dental clinic for women's health care. here
