However, that ban was overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court during the Roe v. Wade case in 1973. The Supreme Court reversed that decision in June. In anticipation of that decision, Florida Governor.

Life is a sacred gift worthy of our protection, and I am proud to sign this great piece of legislation, which represents the most significant protections for life in the state\u2019s modern history.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In fact, there were already abortion changes in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flsenate.gov\/Session\/Bill\/2020\/404\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">June 2020<\/a> DeSantis signed a law requiring minors to obtain written permission from a parent\/guardian before they can have an abortion.<\/p>\n<p>Andrew Shirvell (founder and executive director, Florida Voice for the Unborn), told The Center Square that Florida&#8217;s ban on abortions from 15 to 12 weeks will not affect abortion rates as most Florida abortions are performed before then.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The vast majority (over 90%) of Florida abortions take place before 12 weeks gestation. Accordingly, a new Florida law banning abortions after 12 weeks&#8217; gestation \u2013 as opposed to 15 weeks&#8217; gestation \u2013 would do almost nothing to curb Florida&#8217;s horrendous abortion rate,\u201d Shirvell said. \u201cMoreover, permitting an unborn child to be killed via abortion after 12 weeks&#8217; gestation, if the child was conceived as a result<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Changes could be coming to Florida\u2019s abortion laws after the incoming senate president, Sen.
