West Virginia SJR7 proposes an amendment to the state constitution to protect individual reproductive rights with health and safety safeguards.

West Virginia SJR7 proposes an amendment to the state constitution to enshrine the right to reproductive freedom, including contraception, fertility treatment, pregnancy continuation, miscarriage care, and abortion. The amendment prohibits the state from interfering with these rights unless it can demonstrate the use of the least restrictive means to protect health, following evidence-based standards. Abortion is allowed after fetal viability, except when necessary to protect the pregnant patient’s life or health.
