A federal judge has extended a temporary restraining order preventing Florida's health department from threatening TV stations airing ads supporting an abortion rights amendment ahead of the November 5 ballot. U.S. District Judge Mark Walker ruled in favor of the group Floridians Protecting Freedom, which claims the state's actions violate their First Amendment rights. The order follows cease-and-desist letters sent by Health Department officials, asserting that the ads contained false information about abortion access in Florida. The ads feature a woman whose cancer treatment was complicated by existing state abortion laws, further highlighting the implications of the amendment. Walker's ruling emphasizes that the government cannot censor political speech by labeling it as false. The ongoing legal battle underscores the contentious nature of abortion rights in Florida, with significant public and political implications as the election approaches.
