Original Note:
24 states lack citizen driven ballot initiatives and referendums. In these states, including Texas, only the legislature may place proposed laws or amendments on the state ballot. This means voters are not allowed to vote on abortion without legislative consent. https://www.csg.org/2023/11/09/how-ballot-measures-get-on-the-ballot/ https://houstonlanding.org/abortion-is-on-the-ballot-across-the-country-heres-why-texans-wont-be-voting-on-it/
