Florida voters will vote on a ballot initiative to protect abortion rights in Florida this fall .

The state of Florida opposes the amendment, and has launched a public campaign against it.

Advocacy group Floridians Protecting Freedom, Inc. ( FPF ) launched its own campaign in favor of Amendment 4 .

A federal judge issued a temporary restraining order against Florida , enjoining the state from taking any further actions to coerce, threaten, or intimate repercussions.

A preliminary injunction hearing has been scheduled by the court for Oct. 29, 2024 at 9 a.m. The Florida Department of Health said the ads in question are “unequivocally false and detrimental to public health in Florida ’s state of health.

The state of Florida 's abortion ban is cruel, extreme, and has no workable exceptions for rape, incest, or a woman's health.
