In Arkansas, these volunteers are fighting to get abortion on the ballot
Hundreds of volunteers got more than 100,000 signatures for a ballot initiative to restore access to abortion in Arkansas. Now the state is trying to reject them.
A day after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022, an abortion ban went into effect in Arkansas. At the same time, pro-choice Arkansans started meeting to discuss what they could do in response. The big question: Could they get an amendment on the ballot that would restore access to abortion in the state?
