Where Abortion Is on the Ballot

Where Abortion Is on the Ballot

More than two years after Roe v. Wade was overturned, abortion rights are now on the ballot in 10 U.S. states: Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New York, and South Dakota.

In all of those states but one -- Nebraska -- voters are considering legislation aimed at defending or boosting abortion access. In Nebraska, where there is currently a 12-week abortion ban, it's a bit more complicated. Residents of the state are weighing two dueling proposals: one that would enshrine the state's ongoing ban into the state constitution, with certain exceptions, and another that would allow abortions to the point of "fetal viability" -- thereby authorizing abortion into the second trimester.
