Miami Herald Op-Ed: Both DeSantis And Putnam Pledged “To Sign A ‘Heartbeat Bill’ Should The Legislature Pass One” Which Would Essentially Outlaw Abortion.” According to an op-ed in the Miami Herald, “The debate was televised live, and the moderators, Brett Baier and Martha McCallum, posed tough, fair, no-nonsense questions. Although there were none about the environment or the economy, they did ask about a pledge both candidates have made to sign a “heartbeat bill” should the Legislature pass one. Both candidates said they would, which would essentially outlaw abortion.” [Miami Herald, 7/3/18]
