New York voters have passed Proposition 1, amending the state constitution to include comprehensive anti-discrimination protections, effectively enshrining abortion rights and safeguarding against discrimination based on gender identity and reproductive healthcare. The measure, passed in response to the U.S. Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade, does not explicitly mention abortion but aims to create a legal framework that interprets future abortion restrictions as unconstitutional discrimination. The amendment, known as the Equal Rights Amendment, expands existing protections against discrimination to include a range of characteristics such as ethnicity, national origin, age, disability, and sexual orientation. Despite broad support, critics raised concerns that it could allow noncitizens to vote and permit transgender athletes to compete based on gender identity, though these interpretations have been disputed. The proposal enjoyed strong backing from Democrats and civil rights advocates, reflecting a significant victory for progressive social policies in the state.
