The Arizona court ruling clears the way for a near-total ban on abortions in the state.
The Arizona Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that a century-old abortion ban may be enforced, clearing the way for a near-total ban on abortions in the state.The 1864 ban has exceptions to save the life of the mother but none in cases of rape or incest. 'The abortion issue implicates morality and public policy concerns, and invariably inspires spirited debate and engenders passionate disagreements among citizens,' the Arizona ruling states in the conclusion.
Republican Senate candidate Kari Lake issued a statement opposing the ruling, and she called on Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs and the state legislature 'to come up with an immediate common sense solution that Arizonans can support.' Lake's statement shows how fraught the issue has become for Republicans, since Lake had in the past referred to abortion as the 'ultimate sin' and when Texas passed its restrictive abortion law, Lake posted on social media 'well done Texas.
