Arizona Republicans Gleefully Shoot Down Democrats’ Attempts To Repeal 1864 Abortion Ban
Arizona Republicans celebrated Wednesday after swatting down Democrats’ fourth attempt in two weeks to repeal the state’s near-total abortion ban, which the state Supreme Court upheld.
Rep. David Livingston (R-AZ) turned to the galleries, stuffed with a mix of pro- and anti-abortion rights protesters, and applauded his supporters, raising his fists in triumph. Majority Whip Teresa Martinez (R-AZ) mouthed “we got you” and did a thumbs up. Majority Leader Leo Biasiucci (R-AZ) grinned and accepted a handshake on his way out of the chamber. - Talking Points Memo

Abortion ban backlash
"The backlash against Arizona’s 1864 abortion ban shows no sign of slowing, with celebrities speaking out against the law and Republicans struggling to figure out how to respond to the widespread fury. Their latest idea? Trick voters into thinking that they’re pro-choice.
A strategy document obtained by NBC News shows that Arizona Republicans are considering proposing a ballot measure to protect abortion rights through 15-weeks—a way to undercut an existing abortion rights measure that would enshrine abortion rights through ‘viability.’
The document lays out how Republicans in the state need to change the narrative and present voters with something other than Arizona for Abortion Access’ ballot measure. That’s because they know that when voters are given a choice between an abortion ban and abortion rights, they’re going to choose abortion rights every time. They figure if they can trick voters into thinking their ballot measure is a pro-choice one, they’ll be golden." - Jessica Valenti
