The Arizona Supreme Court has ruled that an informational pamphlet for the state's voters can refer to a fetus as an “unborn human being” for a November ballot measure on whether to guarantee the constitutional right to an abortion.
FILE - Arizona abortion-rights supporters gather for a news conference prior to delivering more than 800,000 petition signatures to the state Capitol to get abortion rights on the November general election ballot, July 3, 2024, in Phoenix. – An informational pamphlet for Arizona voters who will decide in the fall whether to guarantee a constitutional right to an abortion can refer to a fetus as an “unborn human being,” the state's highest court ruled Wednesday.
The ruling drew swift criticism from abortion rights advocates who had argued that the phrase “unborn human being” is neither impartial nor objective. They also said they were concerned that Arizonans would be subjected to biased and politically charged words.
