"Florida's Abortion Ban and the Changing Political Landscape: What's Next for 2024?"

Florida's stricter ban on abortions after six weeks of pregnancy is expected to drive more women to seek abortions in other states, putting pressure on clinics like the Bristol Women’s Health Center in Virginia. The ban, upheld by the Florida Supreme Court, will force many women to travel long distances and incur higher costs for abortion care. The impact will extend beyond Florida, affecting neighboring states and potentially leading to legal challenges regarding medication abortion. Planned Parenthood centers in Florida are implementing measures to help women access abortion care, but the ban is expected to have a devastating impact on public health systems.
