Colorado voters headed to the polls today to weigh in on CO Prop 115. The proposition focuses on the prohibition of Late-Term Abortion. According to Business Insider, the ballot referendum would prohibit most abortions at or after 22 weeks of pregnancy. The measure would ban all abortions at 22 weeks of pregnancy except in some cases. The only exception to the proposed law would be if abortion is necessary to save the life of the pregnant person. Colorado is one of six states that does not have a law restricting abortion after a particular date of pregnancy.
Missouri's attorney general Eric Schmitt announces that his state will be the first "to effectively end abortion" in the United States, after the conservative-dominated Supreme Court overturned the landmark 1973 "Roe v. Wade" decision that enshrined a woman's right to an abortion, saying that individual states can now permit or restrict the procedure themselves. "I pledge to continue to fight for our most fundamental right: the right to life," Schmitt says in a video statement posted to social media. SOUNDBITE
