    Following the passage of abortion rights measures in some states, we examine what’s ahead for state abortion ballot initiatives and restrictions. Our new brief explores: - The future of abortion access in states that approved abortion rights; - How 2024 abortion initiatives may affect states that didn’t previously have bans; and - The limited potential role of ballot initiatives to address abortion access in remaining states in future elections.

    • KFF map showing the outcome of abortion-related state constitutional amendment measures on the November 2024 ballot. The states that recently approved constitutional amendments protecting abortion rights in November (Arizona, Colorado, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, and New York) now join the states—California, Michigan, Ohio, and Vermont—that already had recently added these protections to their state constitutions. However, in Florida, Nebraska, and South Dakota, the abortion rights amendments failed to garner sufficient votes for passage.
