Despite the crushing 3-to-1 loss of a state constitutional amendment to confer civil rights on fertilized human eggs, the American Life League says it's their "only option left".

Voters definitively beat back anti-choice ballot initiatives on November 4, but opponents of legal abortion say they'll be back for another round. What can women's health advocates do to build up support before the next round of attacks?

Need yet more proof that the ballot initiatives in Colorado, South Dakota and California this election season are anti-women's health? Watch the real life stories of these three women unfold on video.

Here's something you still may not know about Colorado's "personhood amendment" on the ballot - chances are you or your own family will be affected if this crazy proposal passes.

Although it's hard to imagine the American public tolerating the medical neglect of women in the name of protecting life, Colorado's Amendment 48 would use the force of law to ensure that women give birth to non-viable babies rather than aborting them.

Self-described "pro-life" Catholic Gov. Bill Ritter has announced his opposition a Colorado ballot initiative that would define fertilized eggs as legal persons. Coloradans will vote on the amendment this November.

An anti-abortion protester attempted to shout down Gov. Bill Ritter, who was speaking on the steps of the Capitol in opposition to the proposed state constitutional amendment that would confer legal rights on fertilized eggs.

Voters in Colorado, South Dakota and California will have the opportunity to restrict or protect women's reproductive rights this November. What effect would each of these initiatives have, and who's behind them?
