Democrats at the Arizona Legislature are expected to make a final push to repeal the state’s long-dormant ban on nearly all abortions that a court said can be enforced.
Hopefully setting a precedent for other states in similar situations. The states need to stop relying on the fed to protect them from radicals and get it done themselves. Their reliance on the fed has allowed extremists to thrive in their state and bleed into local politics.
Just wait for the extremists to get in fed again. Those states rights are gonna get a whole lot weaker if the states do things the extremists don’t like.
Funny, as soon as the constitution says something they don’t like (such as insurrectionists can’t be president), then suddenly it doesn’t matter because that’s old.
The situation here is very, very unique. The state is a swing state that has been trending slowly Democratic. When the AZ Supreme Court ruling came out, Democrats began salivating at the thought of a gigantic turnout for the pro abortion ballot initiative. Any smart GOP politician in the state began to shit their pants because abortion rights ballot initiatives could surge the Democratic turnout in all the state political races and could turn AZ dark blue based on this one single issue. The writing is on the wall though… AZ will be a blue state, but it’s not going to happen quickly as long as the GOP doesn’t piss off the state with unpopular policies.

Yeah, a women’s right to their body needs to be a constitutional amendment. Whether federal or state, would be great wherever possible.
Dems need a super majority to amend the constitution, which isn’t happening in our lifetime.
people on the right love the constitution though. it’ll be tough to get too much past the 10th amendment. no bipartisan support.

Lots of cherry picking for sure
