“The campaign to put abortion access on the ballot, which is led by the Floridians Protecting Freedom committee, reached the state’s threshold of more than 891,000 state-certified voter signatures at the end of last year,” reports Politico. Now “the campaign has essentially six months to drum up support—60 percent of voters must approve it for it to pass. They have to do it in a state where Republicans out-registered Democrats by almost 900,000 voters.”

In other words, if they want permissive abortion laws, Democrats will have to convince a substantial number of Republicans to side with them. But President Joe Biden, who’s vying for reelection, keeps trying to intervene and campaign in Florida—as part of his new abortion-forward approach, for which he keeps deploying Vice President Kamala Harris—which Florida organizers fear will turn off Republicans.

“We are focused on making clear to voters the decision at stake: Should the government get to make these decisions for doctors and women, or not?” campaign organizer Lauren Brenzel told Politico. “Floridians of every party, including Republicans, do not want politicians making these decisions for them.”

Conflicting narratives: An Israeli military strike hit and killed seven World Central Kitchen (WCK) aid workers in Gaza on Monday night.

“I want to be very clear—the strike was not carried out with the intention of harming WCK aid workers. It was a mistake that followed a misidentification—at night during a war in very complex conditions,” said IDF spokesman Herzi Halevi. “It shouldn’t have happened.”

But the organization said that the group had been traveling in a “deconflicted zone” in WCK-branded vehicles, having coordinated route with the Israeli military in advance, which casts doubt on the IDF version of events.

Now, World Central Kitchen—the nonprofit started by chef José Andrés in 2010 following the earthquake in Haiti—is pulling out of Gaza. Andrés had been “working with the United Arab Emirates to land amphibious crafts, loaded with food, on the shores of Gaza,” per Axios.
