DeSantis promises to approve 6-week 'heartbeat' abortion, permitless carry in Florida

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WFLA) — Gov. Ron DeSantis said while speaking at Tallahassee event to announce the next year’s budget that he would sign a 6-week abortion ban, and permit-less carry, legislation into law for Florida.

A proposed bill to allow permit-less concealed carry of firearms, called Constitutional Carry by supporters, was submitted to the Florida Legislature on Tuesday.

Previously, further abortion restriction proposals were floated in December with DeSantis confirming his intent to sign them into law. Specifically, DeSantis got a question about a “heartbeat” bill, regarding abortion.

Asked about both bills in Tallahassee after showing off his budget plan for the 2023 fiscal year, DeSantis said he would work with state legislators to make both bills a reality.
