HAPPENING NOT JUST WHERE YOU ARE BUT IN TEXAS AND CALIFORNIA AS WELL. >>> WE GOT TO GET TO BREAKING NEWS IN ARIZONA. A BIG STEP, ROLLING BACK, POTENTIALLY, A CIVIL WAR-ERA LAW THAT BANS NEARLY ALL ABORTIONS IN THE STATE. THE ARIZONA HOUSE, YOU ARE SEEING THE SLATE AS YOU CALL IT UP HERE. WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT, THIS IS A VOTE TO REPEAL THE LAW BEFORE IT IS SET TO GO INTO EFFECT LATER THIS SPRING. THAT IS AFTER A CONTROVERSIAL STATE RULING CLEARED THE WAY FOR THAT 1864 LAW. BACK HERE IN WASHINGTON ABORTION ACCESS IS IN THE SPOTLIGHT AT THE SUPREME COURT. YOU ARE LOOKING AT SOME OF THE DEMONSTRATIONS TODAY. JUSTICES SOUNDING SKEPTICAL WITH THE IDAHO LAW IN FRONT OF THEM. SHOULD A FEDERAL LAW GUARANTEEING EMERGENCY CARE FOR PATIENTS OVERRIDE THE STATE LAW THAT BANS ABORTIONS IN NEARLY ALL CASES? BUT FOR RAPE, INCEST AND PROTECT THE LIFE OF THE MOTHER >> THAT IS WHAT IS FACING TH JUSTICES. IT THE LITERALLY ON THE BALLOT IN 11 STATES. >>> I WANT TO START WITH THE LATEST ON ARIZONA. THIS LAW PASSED ABOUT THREE WEEKS AGO, NOW. I SHOULD SAY THE STATE COURT, THE STATE SUPREME COURT MADE THAT RULING THAT WOULD ALLOW THIS CIVIL WAR-ERA LAW GO INTO EFFECT. THAT MEANT WITH ROE GONE THE STATE LAW COULD HAPPEN. HAS NOT GONE INTO EFFECT YET. THEREAT IS SET TO HAPPEN LATER THIS SPRING. IT SOUNDS LIKE THE HOUSE, THE STATE HOUSE IS REPEALING IT. THE THIRD TIME IS THE THIRD CHARM HERE? >> I WAS GOING TO SAY THAT. >> Reporter: THIRD TIME IS THE CHARM. THREE LAWMAKERS JOINED HOUSE DEMOCRATS TO SET IT IN MOTION AND NEXT UP, WE GOT THE SENATE THAT IS SET TO VOTE AND IT IS LIKELY THEY WILL PASS THIS REPEAL AND THE GOVERNOR HAS DECLARED SHE WILL SIGN IT AS SOON AS IT GETS TO HER DESK. SHE PUT OUT A STATEMENT SHE WILL, TODAY I AM GLAD TO SEE THE HOUSE FOLLOW MY CALLS TO REPEAL THE 1864 ABORTION BAN THAT COULD JAIL DOCTORS AND ENDANGER THE LIVES OF WOMEN IN ARIZONA. I AM THANKFUL TO HOUSE DEMOCRATS WHO WORKED RELENTLY FOR YEARS TO REPEAL THIS DRACONIAN BAN. NOW THE SENATE MUST DO THE RIGHT THING AND SEND THIS REPEAL TO MY DESK. WE EXPECT IT TO HAPPEN AS EARLY AS NEXT WEDNESDAY. BECAUSE THIS REPEAL WILL NOT GO INTO EFFECT IMMEDIATELY THERE IS STILL WILL LIKELY BE A PORTION WHERE THIS 1864 BAN COULD TAKE EFFECT UNTIL THE, THEN THE 15 WEEK BAN THAT IS CARPENTER W IN ARIZONA THERE IS AN OPTION FOR ARIZONANS TO GO TO THE POLL, EXCUSE ME, TO GO ON THE NOVEMBER BALLOT TO TRY TO CODIFY REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS IN THE STATE. THAT IS AN INITIATIVE IN THE WORKS FOR SEVERAL MONTHS AS THEY HAVE BEEN GATHERING SIGNATURES TO MAKE IT AN INITIATIVE ON THE NOVEMBER BALLOT AND YOU GOT, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF THE REPUBLICANS WHO ARE TAKING A STEP BACK AND JOINING THE BAN WAGON WITH THE DEMOCRATS BECAUSE THEY REALIZE THAT THEIR POSITIONS ARE IN JEOPARDY BECAUSE SO MANY PEOPLE ARE IN SUPPORT OF AT LEAST SOME FORM OF A RIGHT TO HAVE AN ABORTION IN THIS STATE AND IT LOOKS LIKE THE 1864 LAW WILL LIKELY BE REPEALED. WE HAVE SEEN IT IN THE HOUSE, LIKELY NEXT SENATE AND THEN THE GOVERNOR'S DESK >> TO BE CLEAR IF THAT HAPPENS, DANA, THEN THE SITUATION WOULD REVERT TO ARIZONA'S 15 WEEK BAN, CORRECT? >> Reporter: EXACTLY, REVERT TO THE 15 WEEK BAN. BUT, THERE IS AN OPTION TO TRY TO GET AT LEAST A 24 WEEK BAN ALLOWING WOMEN TO SEEK
