“If people from Florida are now going to be flooding into the Carolinas and Illinois … that is taking spots that Alabamians and Mississippians need right now,” said Robin Marty, director of operations at West Alabama Women’s Center, a clinic that provided abortions beforeAdvertisement “In the course of just two generations, we’ve seen our rights won and lost,” Florida Senate minority leader Lauren Book said on the Senate floor in early April, hours before she was arrested at an abortion rights protest. “It’s up to us to get them back. No one is going to save us but ourselves.”
“If anyone tells you differently, they are misinformed,” she said, before the amendment was defeated by a vote of 33-80.
