Arizona State Capitol is seen in Phoenix, Arizona, U.S. April 9, 2024. Arizona's Supreme Court revived a law dating to 1864 that bans abortion in virtual all instances. REUTERS/Go Nakamura Arizona Justice John Lopez, who like all of the state Supreme Court's members was appointed by a Republican governor, wrote that the state's legislature"has never affirmatively created a right to, or independently authorized, elective abortion."

"Today's decision to reimpose a law from a time when Arizona wasn't a state, the Civil War was raging, and women couldn't even vote will go down in history as a stain on our state," she said. Tuesday's decision marked the latest legal setback for U.S. abortion rights, following a ruling last week by the Florida Supreme Court that cleared the way for a Republican-backed law banning abortion after six weeks of pregnancy to take effect.

Asked if Trump's campaign had any response to Tuesday's ruling, a spokesperson, Karoline Leavitt, said in a statement the former president"could not have been more clear. These are decisions for people of each state to make."
