DeSantis signs 6-week Florida abortion ban in closed-door ceremony

For DeSantis, the late night, closed door bill signing was a departure from his usual bombastic style and signals the difficult political line he is walking on abortion politics ahead of his anticipated White House run. Restrictions, popular among some conservative GOP primary voters, are seen as potentially damaging among the broader electorate and have led to bruising losses at the ballot box for Republicans in recent months.

A six-week ban would diminish the Florida’s status as destination for the procedure in a region that has severely tightened access after the U.S. Supreme Court. Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi have banned abortion at all stages of pregnancy, while Georgia forbids the procedure after cardiac activity can be detected, which is around six weeks.

The law contains some exceptions, including to save the woman’s life. Abortions for pregnancies involving rape or incest would be allowed until 15 weeks of pregnancy, provided a woman has documentation such as a restraining order or police report. DeSantis has called the rape and incest provisions sensible.— which make up the majority of those provided nationally — could be dispensed only in person or by a physician under the Florida law.

Good.

Good for Ron DeSantis. As usual the Red Star disagrees with not killing babies.

On Thursday April 13th at Streetsville Secondary a teacher allegedly witnessed a child with plastic firearm. There is a STRICT PROTOCOL for Mr Pisemco to follow, lockdown calling 911 etc. HE DID NOT ! Instead he approached the student. I call for his immediate resignation.
