MODERATORS
This is the best summary I could come up with:
But in a separate decision released at the same time, the justices allowed Florida voters to decide this fall whether to expand abortion access.
The court ruled 4 to 3 that a proposed constitutional amendment that would guarantee the right to abortion “before viability,” usually around 24 weeks, could go on the November ballot.
In paving the way for the six-week ban, the court cemented the rapid transformation of Florida, once a destination for women seeking abortions in the American South, into a place with restrictive policies akin to those in surrounding states.
But allowing the ballot measure gave supporters of abortion rights a chance to continue their national campaign to preserve access to the procedure by giving voters the opportunity to directly weigh in on the issue.
Ballot measures in favor of abortion rights have already succeeded in seven states, including Kansas, Ohio and Michigan.
Historically, many women from Southern states with stricter bans have traveled to Florida to get abortions.
