Florida’s ‘nightmare’ abortion ban takes effect • FRANCE 24 English

in Florida clinics like this one are
bracing for the impact of a stricter
abortion law which prohibits the
procedure after 6 weeks before many know
they are pregnant according to this
fertility specialist the restrictions
will disproportionately affect people of
color who have other children or can’t
take time off work at the end of the day
people who have means people who have
money and resources and time will fly to
Chicago or fly to New Jersey New York to
get their pregnancies terminated I mean
plain and simple but we’re really going
to see a problem with people who have
less resources there are some exceptions
to the ban like in the case of rape
incest or human trafficking but only up
to 15 weeks and the pregnant woman must
provide documentation as proof abortions
are also allowed if there’s a fatal
fetal anomaly as certified in writing by
two doctors and before the third
trimester as well as if the woman’s life
is at risk or she faces substantial and
irreversible physical impairment Florida
voters will have a chance to reverse the
six- we limit in a referendum that will
coincide with November’s election recent
ballot measures protecting abortion
access have passed with overwhelming
support in both conservative and swing
States from Kansas to Michigan Florida’s
abortion law has turned it into a
crucial Battleground for the
presidential vote now he’s worried the
voters will hold him accountable for
saying he’s respons for getting Roy
weight overturned folks the bad news for
Trump is we are going to hold him
accountable Florida is one of several
states that have introduced bans since
the US Supreme Court featuring three
justices appointed by Donald Trump
revoked the Nationwide right to abortion
in
2022 in an interview with Time Magazine
published Tuesday Trump said abortion
should be a state issue seeking a more
cautious stance on the topic am made an
increasingly polarized electorate

Florida introduced one of the strictest abortion bans in the United States Wednesday in what President Joe Biden called a “nightmare” triggered by his election rival and predecessor Donald Trump. US Vice President Kamala Harris was visiting Republican-led Florida to deliver a speech condemning Trump as the harsh ban on abortions after six weeks of pregnancy took effect.

  1. ABORTION IS MURDER!
    If you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime of adulatory sex in this vain, shallow oversexed society

  2. The Republican party is the first party in history to contract freedoms and rights in the U.S. — the majority of the public (86%) want abortion to be legal.

  3. 2024! It is a shame! When will we be free????? People are just simply torture each other! Its all about power! ….I will tell you what u can do and what not! 😢

  4. Don't call the US Roe vs Wade as giving Americans rights to abortions. It was a renegade court, and it gave them permission, not the right. Rights are assigned by the constitution.
