Proposed Constitutional Amendments on Abortion

Various states will vote this Fall on ballot measures on abortion.

Watch a replay of the national prayer broadcast focusing on ballot amendments

In ten states this Fall, voters will face ballot measures that would change their state Constitutions to include a right to abortion. These measures, while worded differently from state to state, all mean more abortions with fewer limits, fewer health safeguards, and less involvement of parents and doctors. Furthermore, they all mean that the people and their lawmakers could no longer pass laws protecting the unborn or regulating abortion, and that any such laws already on the books would be successfully struck down when challenged in Court.

Voters should vote NO on these abortion amendments.
