Appeals court rewrites abortion rights repeal ballot measure
The Missouri Court of Appeals found previous ballot language misleading and clarified the amendment would repeal the 2024 reproductive rights measure and restrict abortion and gender-affirming care for minors.
- A Missouri appeals court ordered new wording for a ballot measure seeking to roll back abortion rights, ruling that voters must be told it would repeal reproductive healthcare rights approved in 2024.
- The ballot measure would allow abortions only for medical emergencies, fetal anomalies, or cases of rape/incest up to 12 weeks, while also prohibiting gender transition treatments for minors.
- The ACLU's Tori Schafer said it is crucial that Missourians know they are being asked to end the reproductive healthcare protections just passed in the last election.
