Default Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signs six-week abortion ban into law



Florida's Republican Governor Ron DeSantis has signed a bill banning most
abortions after six weeks, paving the way for drastic changes in access to the
procedure across the state.

"We are proud to support life and family in the state of Florida," the governor
said in a statement.


He claimed the law would "defend the dignity of human life and transform
Florida into a pro-family state".

The state's current 15-week limit on abortion is one of the most lenient in the
south-east, with many travelling from other states to Florida to have the
procedure.

The six-week ban makes exceptions for abortions in cases of rape or incest,
as long as the woman can provide documentation such as a police report or a
restraining order.
