Pro-life activists rally downtown against Florida abortion initiative that could appear on November's ballot
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Anti-abortion advocates rallied downtown Saturday morning at James Weldon Johnson Park against an abortion initiative that Florida voters could see on the November ballot.
Hundreds of people of all ages braved the cold temperatures to rally for life. Many of them holding signs and wearing t-shirts.
“I think that life is sacred. Life is precious. My life is precious to me, your life is precious to you. I think the way our society is going, life is being cheapened and we are respecting each other less,” Sandler said.
Last week, the group Floridians Protecting Freedom announced enough signatures had been collected for an abortion rights measure to qualify to appear on the November ballot.
