Florida's proposed constitutional amendment to guarantee abortion access failed, even though more than half the voters approved it. Why?

DeSantis and opponents to Amendment 4 argued the ballot measure's authors are "lying" to Floridians, and words used, like "health care provider" and "viability" leave too much room for "outsiders" and unqualified practitioners to come to Florida and perform unsafe procedures.

This amendment limits government interference with the procedure before viability or when needed for the patient's health.
