Bill
HJR 130
HJR 130 establishes a constitutional right to personal reproductive autonomy, prohibiting the state from infringing on an individual's decisions about contraception, fertility, abortion, and childbirth.
HJR 130 is a joint resolution that proposes amending the state constitution to establish an individual's fundamental right to personal reproductive autonomy. The primary intent of the bill is to enshrine the right to make decisions about one's own pregnancy and reproductive health, including the right to use or refuse contraception and the right to have an abortion.
The key provisions of HJR 130 include:
This constitutional amendment would affect all individuals of reproductive age within the state, as it would protect their right to make personal decisions about their own reproductive health and pregnancy. It would also impact the state government, as it would restrict its ability to pass laws or regulations that infringe on an individual's reproductive autonomy.
As a joint resolution, HJR 130 must be passed by a two-thirds majority in both the state House and Senate in order to be placed on the ballot for voter approval. If approved by the legislature, the constitutional amendment would then be submitted to the state's voters at the next general election. If approved by a simple majority of voters, the amendment would be ratified and become part of the state's constitution.
