Florida GOP Dogged by Abortion Rights Ruling in New Cartoon
FLORIDA ABORTION RULING by Dave Whamond, politicalcartoons.com
The cartoon illustrates the Florida Supreme Court's April 2024 decision upholding the state's 15-week abortion ban while allowing Amendment 4 to proceed to the November ballot. A dog representing the GOP is shown being run over by a tire labeled abortion rights on a vehicle. The dog expresses confusion that the strategy worked previously but now causes pain. The image ties to the renewed focus on abortion access following the ruling on DeSantis-backed law. It highlights how the decision overturned legal precedent and created a political gift for Democrats in the state.
