HB 2597 would have amended Arizona’s ban on partial birth abortions (HB 2400) as well as its ban on race- and sex-selective abortions (HB 2443) to remove the penalty provisions in those statutes as well as the provision permitting certain family members of the mother of the fetus to bring a civil action against the abortion provider.
