Moments before Gov. Ron DeSantis delivered a highly publicized speech Tuesday morning touting his policy record, a Republican state legislator put forward a bill that will bring further national attention to the conservative transformation DeSantis has overseen in Florida: a proposal to ban abortion at six weeks of pregnancy.

DeSantis, a likely 2024 presidential candidate, did not comment on the legislation in his “State of the State” speech. But he nodded briefly to his anti-abortion credentials, saying, “We are proud to be pro-family, and we are proud to be pro-life in the state of Florida."

suck it Ron Meatball. 6 weeks seems challenging for many in this position, but is not crazy.

I don't know what you mean by "not crazy". It's certainly not popular. Desantis is in a tough position. He can't really oppose it for fear of inciting the extreme anti-abortions who are at least a sizeable minority of Republicans and highly motivated to vote. But come the general elections, if he's the Presidential candidate, it's not going to be easy to explain away his acquiescence.

Oh goody I hope he’s the gop nominee lol that’s a death sentence in a national election looking better and better for a democratic president next term!
