Florida House Republicans pass 15-week abortion ban that now moves to state Senate after GOP lawmakers in Arizona and West Virginia also advanced their own bans modeled after Texas law
- Republicans in the Florida House of Representatives early Thursday approved a controversial 15-week abortion ban
- The GOP-controlled House passed the ban in a nearly party-line 78 to 39
- GOP lawmakers in Arizona and West Virginia this week advanced their own 15-week abortion bans
- The restrictive bans come after a law in Texas effectively banned abortions after six weeks and lowered the abortion rate by 60%
- The move comes ahead of a U.S. Supreme Court decision that could limit abortion rights in America reversing Roe v. Wade
