Following the Senate vote, the bill now moves to Hobbs, who is expected to sign it. Because law repeals in Arizona do not take effect for 90 days after a legislative session concludes, and the 1864 ban is scheduled to take effect June 27, there will likely be a period this summer in which the near-total ban is still in effect.

The Arizona state Senate voted to pass a repeal on the 1864 near-total abortion ban that the state Supreme Court approved in a ruling last month. Two Republicans voted in approving the repeal bill. It now goes to the desk of Democratic Governor Katie Hobbs to be signed into law. However a spokesperson said the signing won’t happen on Wednesday.
