Florida abortion clinics inundated as nearby states clamp down


West Palm Beach (United States) (AFP) – Women seeking abortions are travelling miles to this clinic in Jacksonville, Florida after their own states clamped down on the procedure. While Florida has reduced its window for abortions to the 15th week of pregnancy — it was previously the 24th week — the state’s laws are still among the most permissive in the southeast United States since the Supreme Court’s stunning reversal of the nationwide right to abortion.
