Ballot measures in five states will ask voters to weigh in Tuesday on whether to protect or restrict abortion access, following the Supreme Court’s decision earlier this year to overturn Roe v. Wade and the constitutional right to an abortion.
Proposals in California, Michigan and Vermont, if approved, would add the right to reproductive freedom to the state constitution.
Kentucky voters will decide whether their state constitution should include language that would ban the right to an abortion, while in Montana, citizens will consider a referendum on whether to adopt legislation that would declare infants born alive to be legal persons.
