The Arizona Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that an 1864 law banning nearly all abortions applies. It is a symbolic decision with important implications for elections in this key state, just months before the United States presidential election.
This law prohibits all abortions from the moment of conception, except when the mother’s life is in danger. Rape or incest are not considered valid exceptions.
Democrats immediately criticized the decision, blaming former President Donald Trump for the loss of abortion access after the federal Supreme Court, reshaped by three of his appointments, struck down the nation’s abortion rights and allowed laws like the one in Arizona that was first approved in 1864.
