Florida's 6-week abortion ban is now in effect
"Starting today, people can no longer access legal abortions in Florida beyond six weeks of pregnancy... The restriction replaces a 15-week ban that's been in effect since July 2022 ... many women don't realize they are pregnant at six weeks.
The ban could have far-reaching effects... it will dramatically curb access to the procedure for thousands of residents in Florida and around the South... Voters will have a say on the matter in November when a proposal to enshrine abortion rights into the state constitution will appear on the election ballot." - WYSO (exceprts)
Who should you hold accountable for the ban? What's in Amendment 4, the Florida ballot measure to restore access to abortion? How can you make your voice heard in the November election? Check this map.
Stripping women of their rights
"Before the ban, Florida was a key point of access to women across the southeastern U.S. living in states that have ceased nearly all abortion services after Roe v. Wade was overturned. Data gathered by the Guttmacher Institute estimates that there were 4,950 more abortions provided in Florida from January to June 2023, compared to the same period in 2020.
Calculating pregnancy is determined from the first day of a woman's last menstrual period, according to the American Pregnancy Association, which shortens the time a woman has to determine pregnancy before six weeks. In addition, Florida requires patients to complete two in-person doctor visits within 24 hours to receive abortion access." - MSN
