pushing us through the last passage,

My executive order removing county attorneys' ability to prosecute women and doctors for performing or receiving abortions remains. I refuse to allow extremist county prosecutors to use this abortion ban to lock up women and doctors for seeking or providing needed healthcare.

A message from Governor Katie Hobbs.

The decision made by the Arizona Supreme Court today is unconscionable and an affront to freedom.

There are only three ways authoritarianism wins. It entices you to put on the armband and participate, it crushes you as opposition, or it convinces you to look away as it takes control.

This is the reality that was hidden from us post-war. And we must recognize it.

People want us to believe authoritarianism exists at the point of a gun, but it’s a disease of despair.

Authoritarians bombard us with abuse meant to destroy our spirit and convince us the reality of life is violence.
