Ohio Issue 1

Voters passed an citizen-led amendment to guarantee rights to abortion and other “reproductive decisions” in their state constitution.

Buckeye State voters will decide whether abortion will be a constitutionally protected right and also whether to legalize marijuana sales.

If approved on Nov. 7, Ohio’s Issue 1 will add abortion rights to the state constitution.

Proponents of an Ohio abortion access amendment that will be on the November ballot feel confident it will pass following the failure of Issue 1, a measure that would have made it more challenging to amend the Ohio state Constitution.
