Florida Supreme Court Approves Abortion Ballot Statement
News summary

The Florida Supreme Court has upheld a revised financial impact statement regarding Amendment 4, which seeks to enshrine abortion rights in the state Constitution. The court ruled 6-1 that the statement, which suggests the amendment could lead to more abortions and reduced state revenues, could remain on the November ballot, despite objections from supporters of the amendment who argue it is misleading. The court's majority opinion stated that the plaintiffs had previously participated in the process and thus forfeited their claims. Critics, including the ACLU, claim the statement is a deceptive tactic to sway voters against the amendment. The outcome is significant as Amendment 4 requires at least 60% support to pass in a closely contested election. Both sides are intensifying efforts to influence undecided voters ahead of the vote.
