TL;DR Summary

Missouri's strict abortion ban, which went into effect after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the constitutional right to abortion, is facing opposition from both sides of the abortion rights debate. Republican Jamie Corley, founder of the Missouri Women and Family Research Fund, has submitted six proposed ballot initiatives that would establish abortion exceptions, including cases of fatal fetal abnormalities, incest, or rape. However, some abortion rights supporters argue that Corley's proposals don't go far enough and are pushing for more expansive initiatives. Abortion rights advocates in Missouri also face challenges from Republican elected officials who are attempting to make it harder for any abortion-related initiative to make it onto the ballot or pass.
