Arizona's legislature repealed the state's 1864 near-total abortion ban. Now it's up to Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs to sign it into law.
Three weeks after the state Supreme Court revived the law, two Republican Senators voted with the chamber's 14 Democrats to advance the repeal of the state's 160-year-old near-total abortion ban.
The Civil War-era 1864 law prohibited all abortions except in cases when "it is necessary to save" a pregnant person's life carried a possible prison sentence of two to five years for abortion providers.
The legislation clears the way for the state's 2022 15-week limit to remain state law. However, that does not include exceptions for rape and incest.
