Summary
Voters across 10 states are facing over 140 ballot measures that address critical issues like abortion access. In states like Arizona, Florida, and Nebraska, proposed measures could either enshrine or restrict abortion rights in state constitutions. The Arizona Abortion Access Act aims to provide protections until fetal viability, while Nebraska holds conflicting measures with one maintaining a 12-week limit. Historical trends show strong public support for abortion rights since the Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade reversal, making these elections significant for reproductive health policy.
