Abortion Rights Measures Advance to Ballots in Multiple States

Organizers in Arizona, Arkansas, and Nebraska submit record signatures, joining a growing list of states with pending ballot initiatives.

Arizona, Arkansas, and Nebraska have submitted enough signatures to place abortion rights measures on the November ballot.
Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Nevada, and South Dakota already have confirmed abortion-related measures for the upcoming election.
The proposed measures aim to enshrine abortion rights in state constitutions, countering restrictive laws enacted after the overturn of Roe v. Wade.
Abortion rights supporters have seen consistent victories in state-level referendums since the Supreme Court's 2022 decision.
Efforts are ongoing in other states, potentially expanding the number of abortion-related ballot initiatives this year.
