Gov. Ron DeSantis, who signed a strict abortion ban, has become the face of a campaign against the referendum, which would allow abortions “before viability.”

"DeSantis continued his weaponization of state government against his own constituents by coordinating a taxpayer-funded press conference with the political campaign opposing Amendment 4 in his quest to silence the voices of doctors and patients suffering under Florida's extreme abortion ban," said DeSantis Watch spokesman Anders Croy.

Gov. Ron DeSantis urged voters in the Sunshine State to vote "No" on the abortion amendment, saying that it would interfere in parental rights.
