"Arizona Supreme Court Revives Century-Old Abortion Ban, Impacting GOP and Trump"

Arizona's Supreme Court has revived a 19th century law banning nearly all abortions, further restricting reproductive rights in the state. The law, dating back to 1864, was upheld by a 4-2 decision, allowing local prosecutors to enforce it. The ruling comes after the U.S. Supreme Court's 2022 decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. Arizona's Democratic Attorney General has vowed not to prosecute under the law, and Planned Parenthood plans to continue providing services until the ruling is formally issued. President Biden and California Governor Newsom criticized the decision, while abortion rights advocates aim to bring the issue to voters in a November ballot measure.
