Rick Scott is refusing to answer for his support for Florida’s extreme six-week abortion ban with virtually no exceptions. That’s because Scott knows his endorsement of Florida’s ban, support for a national abortion ban, and attacks on safe and effective medication abortion are deeply unpopular, and could cost him his seat in the Senate.
Rick Scott knows his support for the extreme six-week abortion ban could cost him his Senate seat because Democrats, Republicans, and Independents alike support reproductive freedom.
Florida is ground zero in the fight for control of the Senate and the fight for reproductive freedom and the fight against Florida’s dangerous abortion ban is shining a light on Scott’s extreme anti-abortion record. But take his own word for it — he would’ve signed the bill into law himself if he was governor.
This November, Floridians will reject this extreme abortion ban and send Rick Scott into retirement.
