What most said couldn’t be done, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) did. Under the Republican governor’s leadership, Florida became the first state to defeat a multimillion-dollar abortion industry ballot measure since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. The demise of the state’s pro-abortion Amendment 4 is a momentous victory for life in Florida and for our entire country.
It will serve as a recipe for all pro-life politicians on how to defeat the Left’s heavily funded abortion lies. Every Republican leader should take note of DeSantis’s unwavering leadership on this important issue and should follow his example on how directly, and with conviction, to fight back against Big Abortion.
The truth is, when leaders courageously speak up for the truth and expose the lies, people around them are empowered to act, and vote, according to their convictions. Which is exactly what Florida voters confirmed when they rejected pro-abortion Amendment 4 at the ballot box on Election Day.
Like many similarly dangerous and deceptively worded ballot initiatives pushed across the nation, Amendment 4 threatened to replace Florida’s six-week abortion protection, which helps safeguard more than 50,000 lives each year, with a permissive measure to enshrine no-limits abortion into the state’s Constitution. By rejecting Amendment 4, Floridians saved their state from being crowned an abortion tourist destination for late-term abortions in the seventh, eighth, and even ninth months of pregnancy. This is long after the point at which children in the womb can feel the excruciating pain of abortion.
Voters also said “no” to the measure’s hidden requirement that taxpayers fund abortions at any time and for any reason. And they rejected the amendment’s ability to eliminate Florida’s parental consent law, which protects minors from being coerced into unwanted abortions…
When the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, our movement was given a historic opportunity. But the battle for life became much more difficult.
