Joe Raedle/Getty ImagesA recently passed law that gives property owners power to restrict public beachgoers from their property is facing criticism, and now there's a petition to overturn the law.
The law allows property owners to control the beach down the high tide water line.
Opposition to the law says this gives too much power to shut the public out of Florida's beaches.
There are already over 25,000 signatures to the petition.
The new law is set to go into effect July 1st.
