Abortion Rights Groups Launch Campaign for Florida Ballot Measure

  • Abortion rights groups plan to spend millions to get an abortion rights initiative on Florida's 2024 ballot.
  • The measure would legalize abortion up until 24 weeks and for health of the patient.
  • It would not affect existing laws requiring parental consent for minors.
  • Supporters must collect 890,000 signatures to get the initiative on the ballot.
  • The campaign could boost liberal turnout in a presidential election year and complicate things for Gov. Ron DeSantis, who signed a six-week abortion ban.
