Florida Legislature Approves 15-Week Abortion Ban
-------------------------------------------------

Florida state lawmakers voted Thursday to ban most abortions after 15
weeks of pregnancy. The measure, which now heads to Republican Governor
Ron De Santis's desk, is modeled on a Mississippi abortion law that the
Supreme Court is currently weighing and which could essentially undo Roe
v. Wade.
