flag Idaho advocates gather 50K+ signatures for 2026 ballot measure to repeal near-total abortion ban.

flag Idaho abortion rights advocates have collected over 50,000 signatures—nearly 71,000 needed—for a 2026 ballot initiative to repeal the state’s near-total abortion ban, which allows exceptions only for rape, incest, or to save the mother’s life. flag The proposed Reproductive Freedom and Privacy Act would establish a constitutional right to abortion up to fetal viability and in emergencies, along with access to contraception and reproductive healthcare. flag The measure, led by Idahoans United for Women and Families, must be verified by the state before appearing on the November 2026 ballot. flag While Idaho’s strict law has drawn national scrutiny and contributed to a reported decline in OB/GYNs, recent national trends show mixed results on abortion rights ballot measures, with some states passing protections and others enacting restrictions.
