With no public fanfare, Gov. Ron DeSantis signed into law a bill that would ban most abortions after six weeks.
The office then sent out an updated schedule noting that the bill signing occurred at 10:45 p.m. Earlier, DeSantis was in Ohio on Thursday promoting his book and speaking at a Republican dinner function.
“Many DeSantis bill signings are like political rallies when he feels it’s an issue that will help him,” said Aubrey Jewett, a professor of political science at the University of Central Florida. In Michigan, a key swing state visited by DeSantis just last week, “the reaction here is incredulous,” said Jenna Bednar, a professor of political science at the University of Michigan.
At an event at Liberty University in Virginia on Friday, DeSantis didn’t even do that. While his signing of the six-week ban was mentioned by the conservative college’s chancellor, Jonathan Falwell, in introducing the governor, DeSantisJewett said GOP legislators in Florida were afraid of conservative opponents in primaries, which is why they pushed forward on a bill that DeSantis had shown only tepid public support for.
