Florida Amendment 4 is a proposed amendment to the Florida Constitution that will be subject to a referendum on November 5, 2024.[1] The amendment would preempt the Florida Legislature from restricting abortion before fetal viability (generally considered to be between 23 and 24 weeks gestational age) and nullify existing statutes such as the Heartbeat Protection Act that currently do so. A 60% supermajority vote is required for the amendment to be approved.[2][3]
