Florida GOP passes 6-week abortion ban with DeSantis' support.

TL;DR Summary
The Republican-controlled Florida Legislature has passed a bill banning abortions after six weeks of pregnancy, with Governor Ron DeSantis expected to sign it into law. The move is seen as a key political victory for DeSantis as he prepares for a potential presidential run. The bill contains exceptions for saving the woman's life and for pregnancies involving rape or incest until 15 weeks, with documentation. The ban would only take effect if the state's current 15-week ban is upheld in an ongoing legal challenge. Democrats and abortion-rights groups have criticized the proposal as extreme.
