An amendment in Arizona seeks to constitutionally protect access to abortion up to 24 weeks of pregnancy, sparking debate and support. The petition garnered over half a million signatures, exceeding the requirement to appear on the ballot. This initiative follows a trend of states addressing abortion rights post the 2022 Roe v. Wade overturn. The certification of the ballot measure marked a historic citizen-led effort, aiming to give Arizona voters a say in abortion access regulation. Various entities, such as the ACLU and Planned Parenthood Advocates, have championed the cause, emphasizing voters' right to decide on abortion care.
