LGBT activists slam DeSantis veto of funds for Pulse survivors before 5-year anniversary: ‘It’s shameful’ – Washington Post

Joél Morales, the Center Orlando’s director of operations, said that earlier this year, the center took over a counseling services program offered to Pulse survivors and the families of those killed. A federal grant had previously paid for similar services in the state, but it ended in 2019. Without state funding, the center can’t afford to keep running the program, which currently serves 68 families and survivors.
