DoomsdaysCWState by State Pending and Recently Passed <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AntiProtestLaws" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AntiProtestLaws</a>: <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Florida" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Florida</a> HB 275 / SB 340: New penalties for protests near gas and oil <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/pipelines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pipelines</a>Creates a new felony offense for trespassing that could cover some protests near pipelines and other infrastructure that do not involve actual property damage. The law broadly defines “<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CriticalInfrastructure" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CriticalInfrastructure</a>” to include above or belowground pipelines, as well as a range of other gas, electricity, water, mining, and telecommunications facilities. Under the law, entering onto critical infrastructure property with notice that such entrance was prohibited is a 3rd degree felony offense. As such, protesters who cause no damage but merely enter onto posted property that contains a pipeline in the course of their protest could face felony charges and up to 5 years in prison if convicted. By contrast, trespassing onto private property is generally a 2nd degree misdemeanor, punishable by at most 60 days in jail. The House bill as originally also created an overbroad “improper tampering” felony offense, which would have included any unauthorized action to “change…the physical condition of the property or any portion thereof,” or to “knowingly and intentionally… deface” critical infrastructure property, but these provisions were removed by amendment.Full text of bill: <a href="https://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/1435/?Tab=BillHistory" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/1435/?Tab=BillHistory</a>Status: enactedIntroduced 25 Oct 2023; Approved by House 22 February 2024; Approved by Senate 28 February 2024; Signed by Governor <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DeSantis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DeSantis</a> 17 May 2024Issue(s): Infrastructure, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Trespass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trespass</a>HB 1435/SB 1954: Charging protest organizers for the costs of responding to a protestWould allow local authorities to require protest organizers to pay for "all relevant costs and fees associated with designating and enforcing" the zone established for a "special event," "including, but not limited to, costs and fees for the provision of supplemental law enforcement and sanitation services." While the bill's sponsors indicate that it was motivated by large, disruptive "pop-up" gatherings of cars like the "Daytona Truck Meet," it is written broadly enough to cover street protests and demonstrations. The bill defines a "special event" as an "unpermitted temporary activity or event organized or promoted via a social media platform" which is attended by 50 or more persons and substantially increases or disrupts the normal flow of traffic on a roadway, street, or highway." The bill also authorizes law enforcement to "enforce occupancy limits" in "special event zones"; which if applied to protests could allow police could limit the number of protest participants in a certain area.

Notably, the new definition does not require that the individuals' conduct be disorderly or violent, or that they commit any actual damage or injury. Under the new law, a "riot" consisting of 25 or more people, or one that "endangers the safe movement of a vehicle," is automatically an "aggravated riot," a new 2nd degree felony offense under the law. As such, large groups of protesters or ones that block traffic, even temporarily, could face up to 15 years in prison. Under the new law, "inciting" someone to participate in a riot is a 3rd degree felony, punishable by 5 years in prison. The law also creates a new criminal offense of "mob intimidation," defined as a group of three or more people who act with a "common intent" to compel "or attempt to compel" another person to "do or refrain from doing any act," or "assume, abandon, or maintain a particular viewpoint" against their will. The offense is a first degree misdemeanor, punishable by up to one year in jail. The law creates a new 3rd degree felony offense, punishable by up to 5 years in prison, for anyone who "willfully and maliciously <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/defaces" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#defaces</a>, injures, or otherwise damages by any means" <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/statues" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#statues</a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/flags" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#flags</a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/paintings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#paintings</a>, displays, or other "<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/memorials" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#memorials</a>" and the value of the damage is more than $200. As "deface" is not defined, protesters who apply paint or graffiti to a monument in the course of a peaceful protest could face up to 5 years in prison. The law may encourage violence against protesters by creating a new affirmative defense in civil lawsuits for personal injury, death, or property damage, such that a defendant can avoid liability by establishing that the injury, death, or damage they committed "arose from" conduct by someone "acting in furtherance of a riot." Finally, the law creates a new civil right of action against a municipal government that fails to "respond appropriately to protect persons and property during a riot or unlawful assembly," making them civilly liable for damages, including personal injury or property damage. These provisions may encourage municipal governments to adopt overly aggressive law enforcement responses to protests in order to avoid lawsuits.
