ARIZONA GOVERNOR ENDORSES 2024 ABORTION ACCESS BALLOT INITIATIVE: The Arizona Mirror reports that yesterday, Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs added her name to a petition to put the Arizona Abortion Access Act on the November 2024 ballot. The Act, if approved by voters, would enshrine abortion rights into the state constitution. The report quotes Hobbs as follows:

The report also notes that Hobbs pointed to the urgency of the ballot initiative, given that the Arizona Supreme Court is set to hear arguments next month on whether to reinstate an 1864 law that bans nearly all abortions except for those to save the patient’s life. Currently, abortion in Arizona is banned after 15 weeks with limited exceptions.
