Voters in Missouri and Arizona will weigh in on reproductive rights in November, as the states join a growing list with the issue on the ballot.
Petitions to put abortion rights on the ballot in Missouri and Arizona were officially approved this week, adding to a growing list of states where reproductive rights will be before voters in November.Both ballot measures would amend their respective state's constitutions to enshrine the right to an abortion after the Supreme Court overturned the nationwide right to abortion in 2022, prompting state-by-state action on the issue.
'Sue Liebel, Midwestern regional director for Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, said in a statement that the Missouri ballot measure 'would end thousands of lives.''Missouri would become as radical as California in allowing horrific late-term abortions and forcing the taxpayer to fund them,' Liebel said.On Monday, Arizona joined the list of states adding abortion to the ballot.
