Two people were accused of falsely presenting companies for a proposed constitutional amendment on the right to abortion in Florida, which would be put to a vote in November to probably legalize that medical procedure in the state. George Edward Andrews III was arrested and booked into the Hernando County Jail on 10 felony counts. The other defendant, Jamie L. Johnson, faces an arrest warrant on the same charges. According to authorities, Andrews III and Johnson 133 invalid signatures would have been submitted in Sumter, Hernando, Pasco and Pinellas counties, according to the Florida Election Crimes Unit. Florida Secretary of State Cord Byrd emphasized the importance of protecting the integrity of the constitutional amendment process. “ The Florida Constitution is a sacred document and there is a legal method by which voters can make amendments,” he stressed. The proposed constitutional amendment to guarantee the right to abortion in Florida has more than 996,000 citizen signatures, exceeding the minimum requirement to appear on the ballot for the state general elections in November.
The future of abortion in Florida The news of the arrest of the two defendants coincides with the fact that this Wednesday the Florida Supreme Court would review the electoral text of the abortion amendment proposal. The court must determine whether the text is clear and precise and whether it meets legal requirements. The proposed Kuwait Mobile Number List amendment needs at least 891,589 valid signatures to be put to a vote. That figure has already been surpassed by the promoters of the initiative, according to official figures from the Florida Department of Elections. The abortion amendment proposal has generated controversy and opposition from conservative and religious groups, who consider it a threat to life and human dignity . On the contrary, pro-choice and human rights groups defend it as a guarantee for women's autonomy and health . The debate over abortion has intensified following the United States Supreme Court's decision to overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade, who legalized abortion nationwide in 1973.
The ruling allowed state and federal laws that prohibited or limited abortion to be restricted or repealed, and generated an intense national debate about the legality and morality of abortion. After the court's decision, the issue of abortion rights was left in the hands of the states. Bucs hire former Rams offensive line coach Kevin Carberry New Bucs offensive coordinator Liam Coen goes back to his time with the Rams to hire offensive line coach Kevin Carberry. Last season, Carberry served as the Saints' assistant offensive line coach. But in 2021-22 he led the Rams' offensive line. His seven seasons in the NFL also included stops with the Cowboys and Washington. The Bucs finished last in rushing offense the last two seasons. Offensive line coach Joe Gilbert and running game coordinator Harold Goodwin left to join Dave Canales' Panthers staff after last season. Coen said earlier Tuesday that he is focused on improving the Bucs' running game. Hiring Carberry would be the first step.
