America’s largest abortion provider and out-of-state interests are leading an effort to create a right to late-pregnancy abortion in the Nebraska Constitution. You’re needed to defeat this effort.

In November 2023, well-funded abortion groups certified constitutional amendment language with the Nebraska Secretary of State to create a right to late-pregnancy abortion in the Nebraska Constitution. Abortion activists are currently gathering signatures across Nebraska to put the issue before voters in November of 2024. Nebraskans need to know how this proposal is dangerous, deceptive, and demeaning, why it must be opposed, and how we can defeat it.

What You Need To Know

The proposed pro-abortion ballot initiative uses vague, subtle language to deceive Nebraskans and allow unrestricted abortions in our state constitution. Among many other problematic consequences, this amendment would:

• Eliminate 50 years of health and safety protections for women and girls from unsafe abortions;
• Allow teenagers to access abortion without their parent’s knowledge;
• Create a right to risky late-pregnancy abortion.

This proposal is dangerous. It’s deceptive. It’s demeaning. It is too extreme for Nebraska.

View the full breakdown of the proposed language in the "Where Does It Say That?" one-pager, and see exactly how this proposal is dangerous, deceptive, and demeaning by reading our "Explaining the Pro-Abortion Ballot Initiative" one-pager.
