Major publishers sue Florida over book ban law in schools
Orlando, Florida — On 16-year-old Jack Hayes' bookshelf you'll find books that may no longer be available in some Florida classrooms, such as the Kurt Vonnegut classic "Slaughterhouse-Five."

Trump says he'll vote to uphold Florida abortion ban after seeming to signal he'd support repeal
NEW YORK (AP) — Former President Donald Trump on Friday said he will vote no on a Florida ballot measure that would repeal the state’s six-week abortion ban, a day after he seemed to indicate he would vote in favor of the measure. Trump has said he thinks Florida’s ban is a mistake and said in an interview with Fox News Channel on Friday, “I think six weeks, you need more time.” But then he said, “at the same time, the Democrats are radical,” and he repeated false claims he has frequently made about late-term abortions and said that he opposed allowing abortions up until nine months. “So I’ll be voting no for that reason,” said Trump, who is registered to vote at his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida. The Florida ballot measure would legalize abortion until fetal viability, a term used by health care providers to describe whether a pregnancy is expected to continue developing normally or whether a fetus might survive outside the uterus. It’s generally considered to be around 23 or 24 weeks, which is about six months.
