In the wake of their stunning defeat at the Supreme Court in the Dobbs decision, abortion advocates have settled on a new strategy. With deep pockets and deceptive tactics, they are focusing on the state level, to which Dobbs rightly returned decision-making authority on abortion, to enshrine abortion on demand into law via popular referenda and initiatives. It has been a distressingly successful strategy, as pro-lifers have learned, most recently in Ohio.
They are targeting Arkansas next. If Arkansans haven’t heard about it already, they should be aware of a proposed state constitutional amendment, entitled the Arkansas Abortion Amendment, to legalize abortion throughout the entirety of pregnancy. The ballot-question committee Arkansans for Limited Government filed the initiative with the state’s attorney general. On Tuesday, the measure received the attorney general’s certification.
