New: The Arizona Secretary of State's office has confirmed that an abortion rights measure has qualified for the state's November ballot.
More than 577,000 signatures were collected — surpassing the required threshold by almost 200,000.
#BREAKING NEWS: The Arizona Senate has voted to repeal the state's total abortion ban. If signed by Governor Hobbs, Arizona would revert to a 15-week ban. STORY: https://t.co/yRq4T4IYik
Here's William Jones who authored the 1864 Arizona abortion bill.
Some fun facts:
He abandoned his first wife and their children in Missouri.
His second wife was a 12 year old Mexican girl. He abducted her and after a complaint submitted his resignation to President Buchanan before he was fired.
In 1864 (age 49) he married his 3rd wife, a 15 year old girl he abandoned in 1865 when he moved to Hawaii.
This is the guy who wrote the law that millions of Arizona women will be forced to obey.
His life is a series of grifts, and he was known for being a "pursuer of nubile females".
