Upset with Democratic Gov. Katie Hobbs' executive order on abortion prosecutions, lawmakers stop the process of confirming her nominations to head Arizona agencies.
Howard Fischer PHOENIX — Upset with Gov. Katie Hobbs' executive order on abortion prosecutions, Republican lawmakers who until now have been slow to confirm her nominations are now bringing the process to a dead stop.
They want to meet with Hobbs, or at least with members of her administration,"to discuss any additional unlawful overreach your office intends to take requiring complicity from executive directors.'' In a response, Hobbs' press aide Christian Slater did not address the executive order and whether the governor has the legal right to tell the 15 county attorneys they no longer have the authority to prosecute medical professionals who perform abortions. Instead, he lashed out at Hoffman.
Hobbs said she is concerned that a legal fight playing out in the Arizona Supreme Court could lead to conflicting conclusions among the 15 county attorneys about which of two state laws is enforceable: One that outlaws all abortions except to save the life of the mother, and the other which makes abortion legal through the 15th week of pregnancy.
HostilitiesHoffman also chairs the Arizona Freedom Caucus, composed of GOP lawmakers who espouse limits on government and taxes. The caucus has become more vocal and combative this year, even saying in its self-description on Twitter that"Katie Hobbs' Democratic Fascism will not win under our watch.''
