FL House Votes To Ban Abortions After 15 Weeks

A 15 week abortion ban passed by the Florida House.

The bill bans abortions after 15 weeks in most cases, with exceptions being made for some medical emergencies or “a severe fetal abnormality.”

But Orange County Rep. Anna Eskamani also wanted exceptions made for victims of rape, incest or human trafficking.

House Speaker Chris Sprowls says it's about preserving human life.

The bill is headed to the Florida Senate where lawmakers are working on similar legislation.
