NEWBERRY, Fla.—A pro-life group has announced it will try again to get a proposed state constitutional amendment—protecting all “human beings” with “a detectable heartbeat”—on ballots in Florida, this time aiming for the November 2024 election.

The group’s first attempt, which began officially in November 2019, failed meet the state’s requirements to put the amendment on the ballot this year.
