The newly proposed constitutional amendment would go back to voters in November 2026, or sooner, if Republican Gov. Mike Kehoe calls a special election before then.

Republican senators used a series of rare procedural moves to cut off discussion by opposing Democrats before passing the proposed abortion-rights revision by a 21-11 vote. The measure passed the Republican-led House last month.

Immediately after vote, protestors erupted with chants of “Stop the ban!” and were ushered out of the Senate chamber.

    I’m beyond amazed that legalizing marijuana passed. And and the law is in effect now

    Cannot believe that abortion didn’t get the same treatment but what the fuck did I expect living in this state??

    I voted at all my local elections man this ain’t my fault. Doesn’t need to be said but yeah I voted for the Dems
