AI Summary

  • Amends Arizona Revised Statutes Section 35-196.05 to prohibit state and political subdivision funding for family planning services to entities that perform or promote abortions.

  • Establishes priority order for public funding of family planning services: state-operated facilities first, followed by hospitals and federally qualified health centers, then rural health clinics, then primary health care providers.

  • Removes the requirement that prohibited abortions be "nonfederally qualified," broadening the ban to include all abortions regardless of federal reimbursement eligibility.

  • Authorizes the Attorney General, county attorneys, and eligible entities to bring legal action for enforcement, with prevailing plaintiffs entitled to recover reasonable attorney fees and costs.

  • Requires recouped public monies to revert to the fund from which they were appropriated or granted.
