@floricuas The Florida Supreme Court on Monday issued a ruling upholding Gov. Ron DeSantis’ 15-week abortion ban that will allow a six-week ban to take effect in 30 days. In response, House Democrats held a “field hearing” in Broward County to meet with Florida women who have been impacted by the state’s restrictive abortion laws. In the meeting, which was co-sponsored by Florida Democratic state Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a young mother recounted the ordeal she and her family lived through when she was denied an abortion after doctors found out her baby had not developed kidneys and was not viable. 🖊️: @gcbalido 📸: N/A
