Abortion Rights Gain Momentum in Key States After 2024 Ballot Measures
TL;DR Summary
In the 2024 election, voters in 10 U.S. states decided on measures related to abortion access, with seven states enshrining or further protecting abortion rights in their constitutions, while three states failed to pass such measures, maintaining strict bans. This follows the 2022 Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade, which allowed states to set their own abortion laws. Currently, 13 states have nearly ceased all abortion services, and four have enacted six-week bans. The election results reflect a varied landscape of abortion access across the country.
