What an amazing idea, letting doctors decide what's best for their patients. Maybe this new way of thinking will gain popularity.

This is important because Arizona hasn't managed to get the radicals out of the state legislature yet and they are pretty constantly trying to pass a total abortion ban. But all statewide offices are Democrat so that's been getting vetoed and a civil war era law was revived by the courts.

This announcement means doctors don't have to worry about the civil war era law.

I 100% agree, I was being snarky about the fact that politicians think they should be making medical decisions when most of them have little to no understanding of medical science or just science in general.
