Florida's Abortion Amendment 4 Faces Crucial Vote Amid Political Tensions

The proposed amendment seeks to expand abortion access, challenging the state's current six-week ban.

Amendment 4 aims to enshrine the right to abortion in Florida's Constitution, allowing procedures up to fetal viability or to protect the patient's health.
To pass, the amendment requires 60% voter approval, a significant hurdle in a state with a shifting political landscape.
The current Florida law, effective since May 2024, bans abortions after six weeks with specific exceptions for rape, incest, and the mother's health.
The debate over Amendment 4 is marked by intense advertising campaigns, with both sides accused of spreading misinformation.
Former President Donald Trump, a pivotal figure in Florida politics, has publicly opposed the amendment, despite past comments suggesting a more moderate stance.
