• Abortion is on the ballot again as post-Roe policies continue to evolve (dailygazette.com) — Maplewood resident Kelly McCoomb is once again displaying a reworked yard sign as Missouri voters prepare to decide whether to overturn the abortion protections they approved in 2024. Her Maplewood perspective highlights confusion over this year's Amendment 3, where a "no" vote would keep abortion rights, while similar measures play out in Nevada, Idaho, Utah, and Virginia.
