Constitutional Amendment
(Ch. 245 of the 2023 Legislative Session)
Declaration of Rights - Right to Reproductive Freedom
The proposed amendment confirms an individual's fundamental right to reproductive freedom, including but not limited to the ability to make and effectuate decisions to prevent, continue, or end the individual's pregnancy, and provides the State may not, directly or indirectly, deny, burden, or abridge, the right unless justified by a compelling State interest achieved by the least restrictive means.
