Prop. 5 / Article 22 seeks to add to our Vermont Constitution:
‘That an individual’s right to personal reproductive autonomy is central to the liberty and dignity to determine one’s own life course and shall not be denied or infringed unless justified by a compelling State interest achieved by the least restrictive means.’
