Trump Backs Florida Abortion Amendment Vote

Former President Donald Trump has indicated that he believes Florida's six-week abortion ban is 'too short' and plans to vote in favor of a state amendment that would protect abortion access until fetal viability. During a recent NBC News interview, Trump stated, 'I think the six-week is too short, there has to be more time,' signaling his support for Amendment 4, which aims to overturn the current six-week limit. This amendment would require 60% voter support to pass in the upcoming November election. Trump has previously criticized the six-week ban, calling it a 'terrible mistake' and emphasizing that decisions on abortion should be left to the states. His evolving stance reflects a broader Republican struggle with the abortion issue, particularly following the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. Amidst these developments, Trump has also expressed support for government funding of in-vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment, highlighting his approach to reproductive health issues.
