The Florida Supreme Court went out to be on the ballot. There are standards, but they're unprincipled
Something got lost in translation there, but the proposed amendment has to be something so simple and straightforward it will survive any judicial scrutiny. Roe's balancing test is too complicated for them, it has to be simple...specify a number of weeks or trimesters. Get the brightest constitutional legal minds in the country working on it now for use across the country.
Sorry, dictated and did not proof. Any proposed constitutional amendment that gets enough signatures to go on the ballot has to be reviewed by the Florida Supreme Court first. They will find a reason to keep it off the ballot.
I understand how it works, hence my suggestions about keeping it simple and straightforward with the best and brightest authoring it with the potential of a corrupt court review in mind.
Just saw this quote in the article: "Grall added that doctors are playing 'games and politics' in these situations, willfully misinterpreting Florida’s abortion ban when it clearly allows them to perform an abortion." Erin Grall is a human trashcan. Who is more likely to be playing "games and politics" with women's lives, doctors or the dipshit DeSantis puppets in the legislature like Grall? Yeah, the answer is quite obvious to me too.
Eli Lilly is naive if they think this is an argument that will persuade those passing this legislation. Deterring college graduates, especially females, from relocating to the state? Feature, not a bug, to that group.
If major companies were to announce different relocation plans due to these laws that may move the needle, but I’ve yet to see that happen.
Respectfully disagree. In the fever of the current moment, there is no backing down, especially to a “woke” company. DeSantis is taking on Disney. Indiana would be forced politically to try to punish Eli Lilly. The movement cannot be tamed right now
Legal Abortions in US Down 5,000 Per Month Since the End of Roe (msn.com) The average number of terminations from July through December was 77,073, a 7% drop from the average in April and May, according to a Tuesday report from the Society of Family Planning. In the states with the strictest restrictions — Alabama, Arkansas, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, West Virginia and Wisconsin — there were 265 abortions per month on average from July to December. That’s a 96% drop from April and May.
It is apparent they do not care. Pass as many restrictions as they can, and even if they get voted out (which will take multiple election cycles), they are counting on the scotus to keep those restrictions in place. Praise be.
Yep. P.S. My post was sarcastic, I was actually trying to imitate Hershel Walker. I still remember when he said "America's the best country in the United States." (paraphrase)
