Arizona Republicans Block Repeal of Abortion Ban
TL;DR Summary
Late night comedians, including Stephen Colbert and Seth Meyers, mocked Arizona's reinstated 1864 abortion ban, with Colbert calling it "dry crazy" and pointing out that the law predates women's right to vote. The Arizona Supreme Court's decision was met with ridicule, with jokes about the state's laws predating its statehood and comparisons to 18th-century France. The White House state dinner for Prime Minister Fumio Kishida of Japan and the musical entertainment by Paul Simon also provided material for late night hosts.
