13 states that may have abortion referendums in 2024
Missouri
The Missouri Right to Reproductive Freedom Initiative is in the process of gathering the required number of signatures to appear on the ballot.
“The Government shall not deny or infringe upon a person’s fundamental right to reproductive freedom, which is the right to make and carry out decisions about all matters relating to reproductive health care, including but not limited to prenatal care, childbirth, postpartum care, birth control, abortion care, miscarriage care, and respectful birthing conditions,” the proposal states.
The proposed constitutional amendment would also allow the state legislature to “enact laws that regulate the provision of abortion after Fetal Viability provided that under no circumstance shall the Government deny, interfere with, delay, or otherwise restrict an abortion that in the good faith judgment of a treating health care professional is needed to protect the life or physical or mental health of the pregnant person.”
