The presentation offers two phases for Republicans to move forward after the state Supreme Court upheld an 1864 abortion law that effectively outlaws the practice, with an exception if the mother faces immediate life-threatening conditions.<\/p>\n<p>The first phase proposes a ballot measure that would be \u201ccomplimentary\u201d of the Arizona for Abortion Access measure and would protect the legislature\u2019s ability to \u201cenact laws rationally related to promoting and preserving life and to protecting the health and safety of pregnant women.\u201d The measure would give voters a choice, according to the presentation, and could be called the \u201cArizona Abortion Protection Act\u201d or \u201cProtecting Pregnant Women and Safe Abortions Act,\u201d among other proposals.<\/p>\n<p>The second phase option presented to lawmakers was to send two alternative ballot measures to voters alongside the Arizona for Abortion Access ballot measure. One would be a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/msnbcs-reid-mississippi-argued-women-are-vessels-whose-only-purpose-is-to-give-birth\/\" title=\"MSNBC's Reid: Mississippi Argued Women Are Vessels 'Whose Only Purpose Is to Give Birth'\">15-week abortion law<\/a> with exceptions, while the other would be a \u201cheartbeat bill\u201d and would restrict abortion after six weeks with exceptions.<\/p>\n<p>The touted benefits of going forward with the first phase, then possibly exploring the second option, as outlined in the presentation, are that it would show \u201cRepublicans have a plan\u201d and could put \u201cDemocrats in a defensive position to argue against <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/becerra-i-hope-to-find-common-ground-on-late-term-abortions\/\" title=\"Becerra: I hope to find common ground on late-term abortions\">partial-birth abortions<\/a>, discriminatory abortions, and other basic protections.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Since the Arizona Supreme Court ruling last week, Republican state lawmakers have yet to act on changes to abortion law as Democrats have hailed the proposed Arizona for Abortion Access measure, which looks likely to be on the ballot in November.<\/p>\n<p>Republican Senate candidate Kari Lake and former President Donald Trump, who will likely be leading the ticket for the GOP in Arizona in November, have called for the legislature and governor to repeal the 1864 law and find a \u201ccommonsense\u201d solution.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In November, Arizona may see abortion on the ballot.
