In a significant backlash against abortion bans enacted after the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, voters in seven states made moves to enshrine abortion rights.
Missouri became a groundbreaking state, as it was the first state to lift an abortion ban through a popular ballot measure following Roe's overturn, signaling a shift in voter sentiment.
While abortion rights saw victories in states like Nevada and Arizona, the movement faced setbacks in Florida, South Dakota, and Nebraska where abortion rights proposals failed.
Abortion rights activists expressed concern that future federal administration changes, particularly under a second Trump presidency, could undermine the hard-won state-level protections for abortion rights.
