Pro-life bill overwhelmingly passes Florida House with bipartisan support
The Christian Family Coalition Florida (CFCF), Florida’s premiere human rights and social justice advocacy organization issued the following statement upon passage by the Florida House of one of its two legislative priorities:
“We are proud to announce that the Offenses Against the Unborn Bill, one of two CFCF legislative priorities for the 2014 session, was overwhelmingly approved by a bipartisan majority of the Florida House on Friday, April 11th.
It is historic to see an overwhelming majority of Democrats and Republicans, 64%, voted to adopt this common-sense legislation. During our 2014 Day at the Capitol, our CFCF citizen lobbyists identified thirteen (13) co-sponsors and supporters for the Offenses Against the Unborn Bill.
CFCF states, “We know these efforts contributed to passage of this much-needed legislation. We would like to thank Rep. Larry Ahern (R – District 66) for his courageous effort in sponsoring this legislation in the House.”
