Missouri Must Vote for Amendment 3 to Save Babies From Abortions
Last week, YouGov, in conjunction with St. Louis University, released the results of a recent poll of over 900 likely Missouri voters. The poll contained a question on Missouri’s Amendment Three, which would remove the right to an abortion from Missouri’s constitution and prohibit gender transition procedures for minors.
The results indicate that Amendment Three is down by one percentage point, with 43 percent in support, 44 percent opposed, and 13 percent undecided.
Overall, this poll provides mixed news for Missouri pro-lifers. There is a body of research that shows that support for ballot questions falls as election day draws near. This appears to be the case with Amendment Three, as support has fallen by seven points since the most recent YouGov/St. Louis University poll in February 2026. Furthermore, most undecided voters usually end up opposing ballot questions. ---More...
Senate Confirms Pro-Life State Judge for Federal Judgeship
The Senate on Tuesday confirmed Ohio appeals court Judge Matthew R. Byrne, who has a career of pro-life work, to a lifetime seat on the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio.
The vote was 52-45.
President Donald Trump nominated Byrne on the recommendation of Ohio’s two Republican senators and Vice President JD Vance. Byrne, a Republican, was elected to Ohio’s Twelfth District Court of Appeals in 2020 after a decade as an employment litigator.
