Miami Beach has been ordered to remove its rainbow crosswalk on Ocean Drive by the first week of September. “We need to resist this action,” Commissioner Alex Fernandez told WSVN-TV. “We need to protect the individuality of our community, the freedom and the safety that our rainbow crosswalk expresses to the world.”

Local leaders, residents outraged as removal comes after directive from DeSantis and Trump to wipe crosswalks and sidewalks with “social, political or ideological messages.”
