TALLAHASSEE, Fla., June 15 (LSN) – Last Thursday, Florida Governor Lawton Chiles vetoed legislation which required young pregnant girls from 12-18 years of age to at least inform their parents of their intent to procure an abortion. According to John Dowless, director of the Christian Coalition of Florida, Chiles demonstrated an “incredible…lack of concern for life and the value of life” in his decision to veto the bill, at the behest of abortionists and the American Civil Liberties Union. The proposed law required only notification of parents, not parental consent.
