Report: Pro-Abortion Groups Outraising Pro-Lifers 8-to-1 on Ballot MeasuresKatherine Hamilton 4 Oct 2024
Pro-abortion groups are raising nearly eight times as much as pro-life groups for abortion measures that will appear on ballots in November in nearly a dozen states.
Campaign finance data compiled by watchdog group Open Secrets and reported on by the Associated Press (AP) shows that abortion amendment backers have raised nearly $108 million compared to $14 million by pro-life opponents.
Abortion-related measures are appearing on the ballot in ten states. In nine of those states, the measures would enshrine a right to abortion into state constitutions in some capacity, with some allowing abortion throughout pregnancy. In New York, the ballot measure would outlaw discrimination related to “pregnancy, pregnancy outcomes, and reproductive healthcare and autonomy,” among other things.
Campaigns for or against the measures typically raise money to reach voters with TV, radio, and digital ads, along with mailers, yard-signs, and door-knocking, and more of an advantage with deeper pockets.
