Preborn child given recognized right to life, and constitutional amendment proposed.

Summary

The bill would add a new section to Article I of the state constitution stating that a preborn child has the right to life. It defines “preborn child” as any human fetus from fertilization until birth, but clarifies that the amendment does not block medical care needed to save the pregnant person or the removal of a nonviable or deceased fetus. The amendment would be placed on the 2026 ballot for voter approval.
