I'm deeply troubled by the news that the state of Florida barred faculty experts from testifying in a voting rights case.
You should be too.
When governments erode our individual rights, they also seek to erode dissent.

Why, oh why, might the politicians who made it harder to vote in Florida not want credible national experts to give evidence-based testimony under oath? donmoynihan.substack.com/p/an-assault-o… 
At the same time Florida politicians made it harder to vote or protest, they also made it illegal for teachers to suggest there was any race-related pattern to this, and started to surveil professors political beliefs and classroom discussions. These things are connected.
Update: The University of Florida released a statement which says they are committed to academic freedom and then confirm they restricted speech because they judged it contrary to “the university’s interests as a state or Florida institution.” What interests might those be?
