'Every person should be able to make their own decisions' regarding abortion, the doctors wrote.

Members of Arizona for Abortion Access, the ballot initiative to enshrine abortion rights in the Arizona State Constitution, hold a press conference and protest condemning Arizona House Republicans and the 1864 abortion ban during a recess from a legislative session at the Arizona House of Representatives on April 17, 2024, in Phoenix, Arizona.

Hundreds of doctors have signed onto an open letter backing a current campaign to get such an amendment on the November ballot. No matter how one personally feels about abortion, every person should be able to make their own decisions with their doctor and those they love and trust. The Arizona Abortion Access Act guarantees personal decisions regarding a patient’s reproductive health will be left to the patient, their family, and their doctor, not politicians.

“The Arizona Abortion Access Act puts health care decisions where they belong, with patients, their families and their health care providers,”One doctor, Andrew Carroll, shared a personal experience at the rally that he and his spouse had experienced to stress the need for the amendment.
