The proposed amendment was analyzed late in the 2023 calendar year. Limited abortion access is currently offered to Floridians, but many supporters of this amendment see its passage as a way to expand and protect that right .Amendment 4 maintained the existing constitutional provision that permitted a law requiring parents to be notified before a minor can receive an abortion. It bans abortion before many people even realize they are pregnant and leaves little time to get care under Florida's two-trip requirement. Amendment 4 would make abortion a constitutional right in Florida, meaning legislative bans on the procedure would be removed. Due to construction at the capitol, attendees must enter through the Knott Building. This amendment does not change the Legislature's constitutional authority to require notification to a parent or guardian before a minor has an abortion. He says the measure would allow children to get abortions without parental consent, something Amendment 4's backers reject. Amendment 4 would enshrine the right to an abortion until fetal viability in Florida's constitution. Currently, most abortions in Florida are restricted.
