Missouri's circuit court has ruled against a ballot measure aiming to secure abortion rights in the state constitution, jeopardizing the November election.
Judge Christopher Limbaugh emphasized the reproductive rights petition's failure to comply with state law, particularly not including statutes to be repealed.
Amendment 3 sought to enshrine abortion rights up to fetal viability and protect individuals assisting with abortions, amidst growing restrictions nationwide.
Despite Limbaugh's ruling, activists remain hopeful for an appellate court reversal before the upcoming election, highlighting the significance of the issue.
