This story seeks to break down what Florida Amendment 4 means and get past all the rhetoric on both sides. We will also look at the current abortion laws in Florida.

Florida's 39-word Amendment 4 has launched a lot of political theatrics. Here's a breakdown without the noise.

Florida voters will be focused on electing a president, U.S. senator and several other state and local positions. But, it's important to remember we'll also be voting on six different constitutional amendments that deal with some pretty hot-button issues — including abortion rights.

Amendment 4 would guarantee a woman's right to terminate a pregnancy in Florida. Here are the facts you should know.

Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 5, 2024. Do you know what Amendment 4 — the abortion amendment — means and whether you'll cast a "yes" or "no" vote?

Amendment 4 on the Floriday ballot would allow abortions up to "fetal viability," usually around 24 weeks, instead of current six.

No law shall prohibit, penalize, delay, or restrict abortion before viability or when necessary to protect the patient's health, as determined by the patient's healthcare provider. This amendment does not change the Legislature's constitutional authority to require notification to a parent or guardian before a minor has an abortion.
