With Arizona’s next legislative session set to start in early January, Arizona Right to Life is diligently working with lawmakers to advance critical life-affirming legislation.

There are numerous challenges for the upcoming legislative cycle — pro-abortion Governor Katie Hobbs, Proposition 139 (a state constitutional amendment guaranteeing abortion rights), and a pending lawsuit — but Arizona Right to Life is committed to championing the voices of the most vulnerable.

Lawmakers continue to push forward 10 legislative priorities, including prenatal education in schools, prohibiting taxpayer funding of abortion, financial support for pregnancy resource centers, listing life-affirming resources on the state DHS website, and more.

Jill Norgaard, Chairperson of AZ Right to Life, said the organization "remains resolute in combating the abortion lobby’s ongoing attempts to dismantle hard-won pro-life protections in our state,” adding:

“This year, we are working hand-in-hand with committed members of the State Legislature to advance ten new pro-life bills in the 2026 session—legislation designed to safeguard the unborn, protect children in our schools, and ensure that no woman is ever coerced into an abortion. Together with our State Representatives and Senators, we will continue defending the laws that reflect our values and protect the most vulnerable among us.”

Among the 10 bills being championed by AZ Right to life this upcoming session are two bills – one to promote prenatal development education in public schools and the other to promote life-affirming resources on the Department of Health and Safety website – which passed the Arizona House of Representatives and Senate last session, but were vetoed by Governor Katie Hobbs.
