Undoing Missouri’s abortion rights amendment​

Missouri Republicans are taking steps to partially reverse the state’s new constitutional right to abortion via a ballot question.

The ballot resolution would ask voters to allow an abortion only in the case of a medical emergency, fetal abnormality, or rape or incest.

The procedures are currently banned for minors but the restriction expires in August 2027. If passed in the Legislature, the ballot question could go before voters this year, should Republican Gov. Mike Kehoe call a special election.
