TUCSON, Ariz. — Today, Arizona lawmakers blocked a bill that would repeal the near-total abortion ban in Arizona.
In the mean time, I went to the University of Arizona to talk to students about Tuesday morning's ruling — hearing from those both in favor of and against abortion rights. "I completely disagree with it," said Sreenivasan."It's not fair that politicians, especially older men in politics are like, forcing birth on people who don't want to have to take that path."Lobato told me if she could send a message to girls pressured by the idea of an abortion, she'd say there are so many other safe routes to take that will keep the baby alive.
If the House decides to vote on repealing the abortion ban, they can do so when they reconvene next Wednesday, April 17.“Today’s legislative action was unconscionable. The extremist Republican majority had the chance to do the right thing for their constituents, and they failed. As they have time and again, radical legislators protected a Civil War-era total abortion ban that jails doctors, strips women of our bodily autonomy and puts our lives at risk.
