In the face of the greatest threat to life our state has ever seen, Nebraskans stood up to deliver a historic pro-life victory that is sending shockwaves of hope throughout the nation.
Pro-life Initiative 434 passed, and pro-abortion Initiative 439 was defeated!
The abortion industry’s attempt to create a right to late-term abortion and eliminate our laws protecting women and babies has failed.
Nearly 500,000 Nebraskans voted to protect women and children by voting “for” Initiative 434 in a resounding 55-44% victory. Initiative 439 failed with 436,750 votes “for” and 462,756 votes “against.”
For the first time in history, pre-born babies in Nebraska have a floor of constitutional protection.
By defeating Initiative 439 and passing Initiative 434, Nebraska voters rejected late-term abortion and built a wall of protection from the abortion industry.
Nebraska’s 12-week protection, parental notification, ultrasound requirements, decades of pro-life laws, and our ability to continue fighting for greater protections have been preserved.
Our bold, first-in-the-nation strategy to counter the abortion industry’s game plan with our own pro-life initiative worked. This is only possible because of you.
Your prayers, advocacy, and courage to stand in the gap for women, babies, and truth have saved lives. That courage is contagious and provides hope for the rest of our nation.
Ultimately, this victory belongs to the Lord. While there is much work still to be done, we celebrate the lives that have been saved and are resolved to continue working to see every life cherished and protected.
Thank you, pro-life Nebraska!
