11.02.11 - Amid a nationwide onslaught of attacks on women's health and constitutionally protected reproductive rights, the Mississippi "personhood" amendment, aka Initiative 26, is unquestionably the most extreme.
Outlawing many forms of birth control—including IUDs, emergency contraception, and even some forms of the Pill.
The Center for Reproductive Rights strongly opposes this proposed amendment. We have already pledged to challenge it in court if it passes next Tuesday, November 8, and we have appeared in a number of media outlets urging voters to oppose the measure.
