A bill to ban the use of the mineral in public water passed the Florida House 88-27. It now awaits Gov. Ron DeSantis’ signature.
Lawmakers in Florida gave final passage to a bill to ban fluoride in public water systems Tuesday, with the state House voting 88-27.
SB 700, also known as the Florida Farm Bill, doesn’t mention the word “fluoride,” but it would effectively ban the chemical compound by preventing “the use of certain additives in a water system.” The bill awaits Gov. Ron DeSantis’ signature.
If DeSantis, a Republican, signs the bill, Florida will become the second state to ban fluoride from water supplies.

Maybe reading it somewhere else will help you get it.
Yes, lower concentrations of a poison make it not a poison.
Do you think pure water is toxic because it can kill you if you drink too much?

That’s from just basic googling, so yeah, I’d say it’s pretty easy to find at least moderately compelling evidence.
Don’t forget some studies on the benefits:

As well as on general chlorine safety: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK598756/
From the first link:
Have you looked through the second link? It’s all about EPA methods. If I felt further discussion with you might be productive I might investigate some of the citations. I just think you’re accusing me of one thing and I’m saying something entirely different.
Are you suggesting chlorine is actually good for you, not that it has antibacterial properties that makes the water safer for consumption?
I’ll skip the chlorine safety stuff because I asked for a study.
As far as the toxicity stuff I’m not concerned because you’re still talking about concentration (see. Dilution).
If you had any tact you would understand that I’m not trying to say chlorine is unsafe for human consumption I’m saying that the goal of science isn’t to determine every possible outcome of consuming it.
Anyway. You’ll just have disregard me because we aren’t communicating on the same level.
