Florida readies 15-week abortion ban ahead of Supreme Court ruling on Roe v. Wade
(Worthy News) – Florida’s House of Representatives passed early Thursday a ban on abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy, as the U.S. Supreme Court considers the constitutionality of a similar Mississippi law.
The legislation now goes to the Florida Senate for consideration before heading to Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis’ desk for signature.
Florida is one of several Republican-led states looking to tighten abortion laws ahead of the Supreme Court issuing a ruling on Mississippi’s law. The 15-week ban is aimed at overturning Roe v Wade, the landmark 1973 decision that made abortion lawful up until viability of the fetus, usually between 24 and 28 weeks gestation.
