The Florida Conference of Catholic Bishops (FCCB) has implored Gov. Ron DeSantis to stay the execution of Loran Cole and commute his sentence to life without the possibility of parole. Cole is scheduled to be executed on August 29 for the 1994 murder of John Edwards. He was also convicted of robbing, kidnapping and assaulting Mr. Edwards’ sister.

Sara Johnson, statewide grassroots director for Vote No on 4 Florida, and Michele Taylor, FCCB's associate director for communications, discuss deceptive and extreme Amendment 4. This amendment on Florida's general election ballot would allow late-term abortions and jeopardize health and safety protections for women and minors. It removes doctors from the abortion decision, includes a broad "health" loophole, and eliminates parental consent.

Yesterday, the Financial Impact Estimating Conference (FIEC) issued a revised Financial Impact Statement for Amendment 4. In Florida, each ballot initiative must include a Financial Impact Statement on the ballot that estimates the increase or decrease in any revenue or costs to state or local governments and the overall impact to the state budget of the proposed amendment.
