Arizona for Abortion Access filed a lawsuit on Wednesday to push back on what they call “politicized language” in the publicity pamphlet summary for their citizen initiative, which would permit abortions up to fetal viability.
The suit is against the Legislative Council, a committee of lawmakers whose role is to analyze the presentation of ballot propositions in the publicity pamphlet that is sent to voters ahead of the general election for impartiality.
In the 26-page complaint filed Wednesday, attorneys for the pro-abortion group opposed the use of three words in the entire legislative staff draft: “unborn human being.”
