Nebraska Initiative 439, officially titled "Nebraska Right to Abortion Initiative", was a proposed constitutional amendment that appeared on the November 5, 2024 ballot in Nebraska. If passed, it would have amended the Nebraska Constitution to establish a right to abortion until fetal viability. It and Initiative 434 were mutually exclusive; the one with more votes in favor would become law in the event both amendments passed.

Initiative 439 failed after 51% of Nebraskan voters voted against it, with only 49% voting in favor. On the contrary, Initiative 434, an amendment that restricts abortion after the first trimester, passed with just under 55% voting in favor.
