The Florida Supreme Court authorizes a referendum to protect abortion in the state Constitution. The judges give way in parallel to the law that limits the period to end the pregnancy to six weeks.

Planned Parenthood, the most powerful pro-abortion organization in the country, appealed the 2022 deadline law that limited abortion to the first 15 weeks of gestation. The ruling draws on the doctrine of the Supreme Court that repealed the right to abortion throughout the country in 2022 and referred its regulation to the States. Based on the new federal constitutional jurisprudence, state judges also reinterpret the Florida Constitution.
