PHOENIX — Republican state legislators in Arizona are considering pushing alternative ballot measures competing with a proposed constitutional amendment expanding abortion rights in the state, according to a PowerPoint presentation obtained by NBC News, as the GOP faces the fallout from a state Supreme Court ruling upholding a near-total abortion ban.
In Arizona, a proposed constitutional amendment can make its way onto the ballot via a citizen-initiated process that relies on the collection of signatures or via a referral by the state legislature. The measure seeking to enshrine abortion access in the state constitution is going the petition signature route, while the proposals discussed in the Republican strategy document would be referred to the ballot by the GOP-controlled legislature.
