Abortion-rights organizers talk failed ballot measures and what's next

The article from Yahoo News discusses the perspectives of abortion rights organizers following the failure of a ballot measure in Kansas that would have removed abortion rights from the state constitution.

Organizers are now looking to leverage this momentum in upcoming elections, focusing on education, voter mobilization, and possibly influencing other states' policies on abortion.
