Idaho Proposition 1 (Reproductive Freedom and Privacy Act (right to abortion before fetal viability; health exception after viability; right to privacy; healthcare provider liability protections)) is on the November 3, 2026 ballot. Ballot title: "Measure creating right to abortion before fetus viability, and post-viability to protect health; right to privacy; healthcare provider liability protections." The initiative would add a statutory right to make reproductive decisions, including contraception, fertility treatment and prenatal and postpartum care, with a right to abortion up to fetal viability and after viability only in a medical emergency as the measure defines it; restrictions before viability would have to be narrowly tailored to the health of the person seeking care; and the state could not penalize patients, healthcare providers or anyone assisting in exercising the right. The state's fiscal impact statement estimates added state Medicaid expenditures of $3,100 to $7,800 a year. Question on the ballot: "Shall the above-entitled measure proposed by Proposition One be approved?" (official ballot language; Blaine County sample ballot, November 3, 2026).
As of November 4, 2026, KIVI reported that Idaho Proposition 1 failed with 44.7% yes; the result is unofficial until Idaho certifies it on November 24.
