States Weigh Amendments on Abortion, Voting Rights

In the upcoming elections, several states are considering constitutional amendments on controversial issues such as abortion and voting rights. Florida's Amendment 4 seeks to enshrine abortion rights, allowing it up to the point of viability, while Nevada's Question 6 aims to codify existing abortion laws into the state constitution, reinforcing protections despite the Supreme Court's overturn of Roe v. Wade. Furthermore, Wisconsin voters will decide on a referendum to explicitly ban noncitizens from voting, amidst GOP claims of protecting election integrity, though opponents argue it addresses a non-existent issue. Meanwhile, the Democratic National Committee is investing $300,000 into mobilizing U.S. voters abroad, particularly in swing states, which could play a pivotal role in the tight race between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump. The ongoing national debates reflect deep divisions over fundamental rights and electoral processes in the U.S.
