Florida yes, but you're missing the whole last portion of the article:
Tl;dr: Florida has more access than some of Europe, but Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Dakota, and Texas have more restrictions than pretty much all of Europe except for Poland.
"On the other hand, several states have banned abortion from conception, with only exceptions for the life of the woman (no exceptions for rape, incest, or lethal fetal abnormalities): Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Dakota, and Texas. (For Texas, the law is currently held up in court.)
These laws are more restrictive than almost anywhere else in the rich world. Poland is similar, but is it “rich”?"
- rory 4y agoI think most people basically understand that part though. It's not like no one has noticed the bans and restrictions in red states. The much stranger thing that's happening is Europeans protesting in the streets against a ruling in America that declared a 16-week abortion ban legal-- when their own country has a 12-week abortion ban! It seems that many people both inside and outside America are missing the fact that the laws of most European countries would have been declared illegal under Roe for being too restrictive.
