The Arizona Supreme Court has issued an order delaying the enforcement of the state's recently revived 1864 abortion ban. This decision comes after a 90-day stay was requested by the state's attorney general.
Arizona Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs signed a repeal of the 1864 abortion ban on May 2. However, the repeal will not take effect until 90 days after the legislative session ends. With the state's legislature currently in session, there is a possibility that the Civil War-era abortion ban could be enforced for a brief period.
