Florida's Supreme Court delivered a controversial ruling on Wednesday, allowing a financial warning related to an abortion rights amendment on the ballot.
The warning, prepared by the Financial Impact Estimating Conference (FIEC), suggests the amendment could decrease state revenues due to increased abortions. The court's decision dismisses a lawsuit from the abortion rights group Floridians Protecting Freedom, which argued that the warning was unauthorized.
This decision arrives amid widespread national debate on abortion rights, underscored by concurrent judicial and legislative actions in states like Arizona and Montana.
