The decision was made by Judge Kellie Johnson of Pima county's superior court. Johnson released a ruling on Friday that allowed the enforcement of the law that dates back to the mid-19th century. On Saturday, Sinema went to Twitter to express her frustration and criticized the decision claiming, 'a woman's health care decisions should be between her, her family and her doctor.'

Arizona Senator (D) Krysten Sinema responds to judge's decision to lift an injunction on all abortions except to save the life of a mother, saying it: 'removes basic rights Arizona women have relied upon for over a century' Republican Arizona Attorney-General Mark Brnovich applauded the Friday ruling, an apparent win since Brnovich wanted tougher restrictions in his state On Saturday, Sinema went to Twitter to express her frustration and criticized the injunction The injunction was lifted a day before a new law that would ban most procedures after 15 weeks was scheduled to take effect, the news outlet reported. Republican Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich applauded the Friday ruling, an apparent win since Brnovich wanted tougher restrictions in his state. Prior to that, Governor Doug Ducey (R) had enacted a 15-week ban that he believed was the law of the land. Many women were rattled by the conflicting abortion restrictions. The US Supreme Court overturned the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision and wiped out the constitutional right to abortion in June, sparking a raft of strict state laws regulating the practice. 'Arizona women should not be forced to travel outside the state to receive health care services and doctors should not face criminal penalties for taking care of women in need,' Sinema tweeted. 'A woman's health care decisions should be between her, her family, and her doctor,' she wrote. 'Today's decision removes basic rights Arizona women have relied upon for over a century and endangers their health, safety, and well-being.' Sinema's comments come after an Arizona judge ruled Friday that the state can enforce a ban that has been blocked for nearly 50 years, the Supreme Court ruling in Roe v. Wade protected abortion access nationwide. The ban was enacted in the 1800s before Arizona became a state, but its enforcement was halted after the Roe ruling in 1973. The judge ruled that the injunction that prevented enforcement of the law was only issued because of Roe v. Wade, so it must be lifted completely. More than a dozen states either had trigger bans go into effect after the Supreme Court overturned Roe in June or passed legislation banning it since then. Many bans do not include exceptions for rape or incest, The Hill reported. Sinema said she will continue to work to advance 'commonsense proposals' to ensure women in Arizona and across the country can access the health care they need and make their own decisions about their futures.
