The Arizona Senate followed in the footsteps of the Arizona House and repealed a strong abortion law set in place in 1864. The bill now heads to the desk of Democrat Governor Katie Hobbs who is thrilled to make abortion more common in the state.
However, in 2022, Arizona enacted a 15-week abortion limit that remains in place. Hobbs vowed to continue to fight for easier access to abortion.
CompassCare CEO and Reverend James Harden has been following this story since the controversy began with the Arizona Supreme Court upholding the law.
We have Reverend Harden joining us now to examine the decision of state representatives to kill the law. Jim, welcome to the program.
Q&A:
1. From the beginning, this law looked like it wouldn’t last long as even some Republicans ran from it. Was that disappointing?
2. Did you see signs that it had a chance?
3. Do you find it peculiar that the year the law was enacted became such a focus in the media – as though something that old can’t possibly be good?
4. Tell us about the law. What did it say that the left found so troubling?
5. Some believe this is a sign being pro-life is bad for elections. Do you believe that? Does it matter?
6. Where is the battle for the lives of the unborn these days? Are you seeing progress?
7. Where can people go to learn more about CompassCare and your efforts to save babies?
