So what now?

John,   On Tuesday, the Arizona Supreme Court reinstated a Civil War-era abortion ban. This law is beyond inhumane. It criminalizes doctors and doesn’t make any exceptions in cases of rape or incest. It’s a complete violation of a woman’s most fundamental rights.  Winning this November just became e…

This was a horrible week.

John,   On Tuesday, the Arizona Supreme Court upheld a pre-statehood law that bans abortions in almost all cases. This law effectively means an end to abortions in Arizona.  Horrified doesn’t begin to cover how I feel. This law was passed in 1864. Before Arizona was a state and before women could vo…

John,   Yesterday, the Arizona Supreme Court ruled that a near-total abortion ban from 1864 is enforceable. For some perspective, here’s what was going on in 1864: Arizona was not a state Slavery was still legal Women could not vote or own propertyThis territorial law is horrifying.
