“Florida abortion rights advocates, who have seen access to the procedure erode in the state and nationally in recent years, are on the verge of a major win that could shape abortion access throughout the south,” Politico reports.

“Groups seeking a constitutional amendment protecting abortion are on track to have enough state-certified signatures by the Feb. 1 deadline to put a referendum on the 2024 ballot.”

“If successful, voters in the country’s third most populous state could undo Florida’s abortion bans, keeping access open to thousands of patients throughout the south who travel to Florida from neighboring states — and from as far away as Texas — to avoid more restrictive prohibitions.”
