1:17Now PlayingAbortion rights groups turned in nearly 240,000 signatures in support of a ballot initiative that would put the right to an abortion in the state constitution.
In 2022, as it appeared likely the U.S. Supreme Court would overturn Roe V. Wade, the Colorado General Assembly passed a bill that guarantees certain reproductive rights in Colorado. Gov. Jared Polis signed it into law. This ballot initiative goes a step further by enshrining those rights into the state constitution.
This is a constitutional amendment, so it will need 55% of the vote to pass.
