DeSantis's Controversial Abortion Ban in Florida
TL;DR Summary
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis's decision to sign a six-week abortion ban into law has put him in a difficult political position, potentially undermining his White House ambitions in 2024. While the move endears him to anti-abortion activists and hardline conservatives, it could also hurt him among a broader swath of the electorate that has repeatedly rejected rigid new restrictions on abortion. The new law creates new exceptions for rape and incest up to 15 weeks of pregnancy and still allows exemptions for abortions deemed necessary for the health of the mother up to 15 weeks.
