Jason Pizzo on Abortion

 

 


Don't ban most abortions after six weeks instead of fifteen

SB300: Heartbeat Protection Act; prohibiting physicians from knowingly performing or inducing a termination of pregnancy after the gestational age of the fetus is determined to be more than 6 weeks, rather than 15 weeks, with exceptions.

ACLU-FL testimony in opposition: If passed, nearly all abortions would be illegal after 6 weeks, before many women even know they are pregnant, or if they are aware, before they are able to satisfy the state-mandated requirement of two appointments with the doctor separated by at least 24 hours.

Governor's press release in favor 4/13: "We are proud to support life and family in the state of Florida. I applaud the Legislature for passing the Heartbeat Protection Act that expands pro-life protections and provides additional resources for young mothers and families."

Legislative Outcome: Passed Senate 26-13-1 on Apr/3/23; State Sen. Pizzo voted NO; passed House 70-40-9 on Apr/13/23; signed by Gov. DeSantis on Apr/13/23.
