A state court is being asked to block a new Florida law which bans most abortions after 15 weeks.
The American Civil Liberties Union,and other reproductive health providers on Monday are asking a Florida judge in Tallahassee to issue a temporary, emergency injunction stopping the new law passed by a GOP-controlled Florida Legislature from taking effect on Friday.
“The ban is blatantly unconstitutional under the state constitution,”″ said the ACLU of Florida in a statement. Florida voters reaffirmed the right to privacy again in 2012 by rejecting a ballot initiative that would have limited its scope and would have prohibited state courts from interpreting the Florida Constitution to provide stronger protection for abortion than the U.S. constitution, they said.
“In other words, doctors are not irreparably harmed simply because they cannot perform a procedure prohibited by state law,” attorneys for the state of Florida said.
