↑Expands abortion accessmodel confidence 90%
Proposes a constitutional amendment that would protect the right to personal reproductive autonomy and subject any state restrictions to strict scrutiny, making broader legal access to abortion more likely if adopted.
Each individual residing in this state has the right to personal reproductive autonomy, and this state recognizes that right as central to the individual's liberty and dignity to determine the individual's own life course. This state may not restrict or prohibit the exercise of that right unless the restriction or prohibition is justified by a compelling state interest that is achieved using the least restrictive means available.

Why the model tagged it this way: The joint resolution proposes adding a right to personal reproductive autonomy to the Texas Constitution, with strict scrutiny for any restrictions, which would expand legal access to abortion if approved by voters; it also includes a ballot proposition for the 2025 election.
