Florida's top court on Monday cleared the way for the law banning abortion after six weeks of pregnancy to take effect.
But the Court also gave voters the chance to decide whether to amend the state's constitution to establish a right to an abortion.
Abortion is illegal in Florida since 2022.
But the U.S. Supreme Court overturned its landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling.
A group of Florida abortion providers had filed a lawsuit, saying the 15-week ban violates the state's constitution.
Both Biden and Trump reacted to the ruling on Tuesday.
Biden‘s campaign condemned the extreme decision.
Trump’s campaign said they supported preserving life, but also supported the voters’ right to make decisions for themselves.”
Anyway the voters would decide issue in November.
I guess,
This issue truly divides America.
What a strange country America is.
The idea of banning the right to abortion by law is completely incomprehensible.
