Arizona Voters Secure Abortion Rights in State Constitution

TL;DR Summary
Arizona voters have passed Proposition 139, a constitutional amendment guaranteeing abortion access up to fetal viability, around 24 weeks, with exceptions for the health of the pregnant person. This measure overturns the state's previous 15-week abortion ban and is expected to lead to legal challenges against other existing abortion regulations. The amendment was supported by a significant campaign effort, gathering over 800,000 signatures and raising $32 million.
