Arizona Voters Secure Abortion Rights with Prop. 139 Passage

TL;DR Summary
Arizona voters have approved Proposition 139, amending the state constitution to enshrine abortion rights up to fetal viability, approximately 24 weeks, with exceptions for health concerns thereafter. This measure overturns the existing 15-week abortion limit and follows a contentious debate intensified by the U.S. Supreme Court's reversal of Roe v. Wade in 2022. The amendment is part of a broader movement, with similar measures on ballots in nine other states.
