Who the next president will be won’t be the only thing on the ballot this November.

Tens of millions of voters in Montana, Arizona, Missouri, Nebraska, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Nevada, New York and South Dakota are being asked how their state should regulate abortion.

Most initiatives in these 10 states would allow abortion until fetal viability, generally considered to be around 24 weeks, or later only in cases where the pregnant woman’s health is at risk.

The effort is a response to the Supreme Court’s 2022 decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, which led many states to enact abortion restrictions or bans.

We’ve explained what each state will ask voters to do.
