Arizona lawmakers have repealed the state’s 160-year-old statute banning nearly all abortions. The repeal was passed by the Senate in a 16-14 vote and is expected to be quickly signed by Governor Katie Hobbs, a Democrat. Two Republican senators crossed party lines to vote in favour of repealing the ban.
