The AZ Senate had the votes to repeal the ban last week, so a repeal seems likely. While this would simply put a newer 15w ban in place, this is an immediate benefit to a lot of people who are pregnant and don't want to be, and an indication that the GOP is unable to stand in the face of how pissed off people are.
If you live in AZ, especially, but even if you don't, you need to read the whole article, bc I guarantee that the GOP where you live is going to try to pull bait-and-switch tactics similar to those being tried in AZ, where a pro-reproductive-freedom item is on the ballot. GOPers there are going to try to confuse the vote into failure.

"The Biden administration on Monday announced new rules designed to safeguard the privacy of abortion providers and patients seeking the procedure, a move which comes in response to threats from conservative prosecutors putting abortion in their crosshairs.
"The rules announced by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) will bar doctors, insurers and other health-care groups from making health information available to state officials investigating, prosecuting, or filing a lawsuit against a patient or provider. 
They shield both people crossing state lines to seek a legal abortion and those who are not covered under a given state’s abortion ban due to being a rape survivor, for example.
The new regulations update the healthy privacy law known as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, or HIPAA, which dates to 1996 and did not anticipate today’s uncertain reproductive rights landscape. 
Prior to the new rules taking effect — which won’t happen for at least two months — it will remain legal for organizations to share private health information with law enforcement investigating crimes."

Abortion bans and domestic violence: Homicide is a leading cause of death for pregnant people.
Are there any numbers that show how the Dobbs decision has impacted any of these things, either the homicide rate for pregnant women or reproductive coercion?
The National Domestic Violence Hotline said that there was a 98 percent increase in reports of reproductive coercion the year after Dobbs, compared to the year before—more than 2,400 callers, the year after, reporting experiencing some form of reproductive coercion, compared to about 1,200 callers the year before that decision.
Were people referencing the law?
Some of the callers were saying that their abusers were referencing the abortion ban in their state. And this is also, broadly, a tactic that experts expect to increase. Basically, when the state hands down these abortion restrictions, it can wind up enabling abusers because it suggests that the state has no interest in giving them access to abortion and supporting their reproductive autonomy. So, it’s something that an abuser can also restrict. And it does sound like, from the anecdotes that I heard, sometimes this is what people are reporting.

Are you planning on getting an abortion in Ohio? Do you work at an abortion clinic in Ohio? This post applies to you.
There is a group called PAAU (Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising), and their whole goal is to make the anti-abortion movement seem progressive. They may claim they’re pro-trans rights, pro-feminism, and pro-BLM… but the people funding them sure aren’t!
The organization’s executive coordinator is named Constance Becker, and she lives and works in Ohio. Someone who is close to the organization told me about something she’s planning to do, and I feel that it’s my duty to warn others. She intends to get jobs at abortion clinics for the sole purpose of talking the patients out of getting abortions. If you work at a clinic in Ohio, be on the lookout for her. She may use an alias, so here are some pictures.

Here is the organization’s page, and the information for the other team members.

Pro-choice is about so many things other than abortion that you should keep your nose out of.
