Other Anti-Choice Law

Arkansas has created additional threats to privacy and choice by adding anti-choice language to its state constitution to express its opposition to abortion and its intent to restrict the right to choose to the greatest extent possible.

"The policy of Arkansas is to protect the life of every unborn child from conception until birth, to the extent permitted by the Federal Constitution."  Ark. Const. amend. 68, § 2 (Enacted by Initiative Petition 1988).

97 percent of Arkansas counties have no abortion provider
