Basically, abortion is now totally illegal in the US state of Arizona.
Also, the law is from 1864 and provides no exceptions for rape and incest.
Republicans have actually reinstated an archaic law from 160 years ago, which (in my opinion) is a perfect representation of their headspace as a political party.
