Prohibit Abortion and Gender Transition Procedures for Minors Amendment

Plain-English Summary

A legislatively referred constitutional amendment that would repeal Missouri's 2024 reproductive rights amendment and prohibit abortion except in cases of medical emergency, fetal anomaly, or rape and incest (the latter only within the first 12 weeks of pregnancy). It would also require parental consent for minors and prohibit gender transition procedures for minors.
