Arizona state lawmakers met on April 10 for the first time since the state's Supreme Court allowed a near-total abortion ban that dates back to 1864 to take effect. While some believe a vote to repeal the law will take place on Wednesday, that didn't happen.
There was quite a scene in the Arizona State House on April 10, as lawmakers met for the first time since a ruling by the state’s Supreme Court that allowed a near-total abortion ban that dates back to 1864 to take effect once again in Arizona.In the aftermath of the abortion ruling, a number of politicians, including those with the Republican Party, have called for the Civil War-era law, officially known as A.R.S. 13-3603, to be repealed.
" Democratic lawmakers seem certain they can get a few Republicans to vote to rescind the near-total ban, but no vote on the matter took place on April 10. Shouts of "shame, shame" can be heard on the house floor, as Republicans vote to go to recess."There is no Senate bill, so there is nothing to vote on," said State Sen. T.J. Shope .While there is a bill in the State House on the matter, there were no votes held for that bill.
