“Arizona lawmakers secured enough votes on Wednesday to repeal an abortion ban that first became law when Abraham Lincoln was president and a half-century before women won the right to vote,” the New York Times reports.
“A bill to repeal the law appeared to be on track to narrowly pass in the Republican-controlled State Senate with the support of every Democratic senator and two Republicans who were breaking with anti-abortion conservatives in their own party.
”“If it passes as expected, it would go to Gov. Katie Hobbs, a Democrat, who is expected to sign it.”
