Amendment 4: Learn More (Pt. 3)

Home / Parish & Diocesan News / Amendment 4: Learn More (Pt. 3)

Florida has an informed consent statute specific to abortion, commonly referred to as the “Woman’s Right to Know” Act. This law requires the physician to inform the patient of the nature and risks of undergoing or not undergoing the abortion procedure, the probable gestational age of the fetus, verified by an ultrasound, and the medical risks to the woman and fetus of carrying the pregnancy to term.

The proposed Amendment 4 to appear on the November ballot fails to disclose to voters that the 24-hour waiting requirement and other protections in the Woman’s Right to Know Act would likely be eliminated by the amendment if enacted. This is dangerous to the health of pregnant women.
