A judge on Wednesday refused to take action against Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis over an order to remove Students for Justice in Palestine from campuses.
State university Board of Governors Chancellor Ray Rodrigues wrote to university presidents in October at DeSantis' urging, directing them to disband chapters of Students for Justice in Palestine. He argued the groups were violating Florida law deeming it a felony to "knowingly provide material support ... to a designated foreign terrorist organization."

In response to Hamas' October 7 attack on southern Israel, "and leading up to a "Day of Resistance," the National Students for Justice in Palestine (National SJP) released a "toolkit" which refers to Operation Al-Aqsa Flood as ‘the resistance’ and unequivocally states: ‘Palestinian students in exile are PART of this movement, not in solidarity with this movement,’" Rodrigues wrote. "These chapters exist under the headship of the National Students for Justice in Palestine, who distributed a toolkit identifying themselves as part of the Operation AlAqsa Flood."
