Summary

Voters in six U.S. states approved measures to protect or expand abortion rights, while a similar measure failed in Florida, where it fell short of the 60% support needed.

In Arizona, voters backed extending abortion access up to 24 weeks from the current 15-week limit.

Missouri voters appeared set to overturn a near-total abortion ban.

Maryland, Colorado, and Nevada approved amendments enshrining abortion rights in their constitutions.

The results reflect ongoing state-level efforts to address abortion access following the Supreme Court’s 2022 decision overturning Roe v. Wade.

      Not sure, but I’m reading that he said he’d veto a national abortion ban.

        He’s a loose cannon, but ultimately he will do what he’s told to by his overlords

        He says a lot of things. Few of them are true. I guarantee Congress will write the law, and I see no reason Trump would veto it. He is in a position of power, he can always get his mistress an abortion regardless of legality.
