Comcast, the media giant that owns NBCUniversal and a news division that includes left-leaning MSNBC, donated $50,000 this month to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis's political action committee working to block an abortion-rights initiative in the state, according to campaign finance records.The donation to DeSantis's Florida Freedom Fund supports efforts to block a state constitutional amendment aimed at safeguarding abortion rights, fueling criticism of 'corporate hypocrisy.
In May, Florida banned almost all abortions after six weeks of pregnancy, which the Florida Freedom Fund is seeking to maintain as law. Before that law went into effect, the state had some of the least restrictive abortion laws in the Southeast, and more than 7,000 women traveled to Florida from across the region for the procedure.Now, Florida has one of the strictest abortion laws in the country, banning most abortions before many women even realize they are pregnant.
