Abortion is legal in Arizona up to 15 weeks and beyond for medical emergencies. So, Arizonans voting on Prop 139 are not choosing between abortion or no abortion; they are choosing between abortion with limits and safety precautions – or unlimited, unregulated abortion, without doctor or parental oversight.
