The outcome of a subsequent Florida Supreme Court decision will still determine the future of the new six-week abortion law.
The current 15-week restriction in Florida is being challenged by abortion clinics in front of the state’s highest court. The most recent statute that Mr. DeSantis signed states that the six-week ban will only take effect if Florida’s top court sustains the existing 15-week law.
The conservative Supreme Court of Florida is anticipated to agree with pro-life campaigners and declare the 15-week restriction to be constitutional.
Since a federal judge last week blocked the initial licensing of a commonly used abortion medicine, mifepristone, there has been a heated national debate in the US about abortion.
The Biden administration has stated that it will approach the Supreme Court to reinstate full access to the medicine after that suspension was later overturned by an appellate court.
