Arizona abortion ban halted by appeals court order

• The stay temporarily blocks enforcement of the ban while an appeal continues.
• This will allow abortion care to resume immediately, per Planned Parenthood.

Details: The panel found that the judge who allowed for the abortion ban should have considered a number of laws restricting abortions that were passed after the original injunction following the 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling, per AP.

What they're saying: "Our office understands this is an emotional issue, and we will carefully review the court’s ruling before determining the next step," Brittni Thomason, a spokesperson for the Arizona Attorney General's office, said.
