Proposes 2024 advisory referendum on restoring Roe v. Wade rights.

Failed to pass both houses, will not become law this session

This resolution would pose the following advisory question to voters on the April 2024 ballot:

“Shall Wisconsin’s 1849 abortion law be repealed and the constitutional rights guaranteed under Roe v. Wade be restored?”

In an advisory referendum, the legislature places a proposal on the ballot to gauge voters’ opinions. The results of an advisory referendum are not binding, meaning the results will not change the law.
