In November 2024, Colorado voters did something amazing by passing Amendment 79: they put abortion rights in the Colorado Constitution, and they overturned a 40 year ban on public insurance coverage for abortion care. And they did it in overwhelming numbers, across the state and across party lines. Amendment 79 won a majority in all eight Congressional districts, Republican and Democratic alike, and surpassed the 55% threshold needed to win in five of them.

This election day, Coloradans resoundingly reaffirmed our shared values on abortion rights across geographic and partisan lines. Coloradans voted YES on Amendment 79 by an overwhelming 62% of the vote, enshrining abortion rights in our state’s Constitution and removing a discriminatory ban on insurance coverage for abortion care.
