The Florida Supreme Court on Monday, April 1, made two pivotal decisions concerning the state’s abortion laws. The court upheld a 2022 law banning abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy which paves the way for an even stricter ban after six weeks to be implemented. Signed by Gov. Ron DeSantis in 2023, the six-week ban is among the nation’s most restrictive and was to go into effect one month after the state’s high court affirmed the 15-week ban.
