Quick Glance: Ecuadorean President Noboa seeks support for security measures in upcoming vote
- Ecuador's President Daniel Noboa is aiming for voter support for a range of security measures in a national referendum on Sunday to address the increasing violence that has garnered international attention.
- Noboa is urging voters to support joint police-military patrols, the extradition of wanted criminals, longer sentences for terrorism and murder, and other crimes to combat the rising violence attributed to drug gangs.
- Opinion polls suggest that voters are likely to support Noboa, 36, in the 11-question referendum, despite potential dampening of support due to recent power outages. Passing five of the measures would lead to constitutional modifications.
- Over the past decade, cocaine-smuggling gangs have spread across every corner of Latin America, transforming once peaceful nations like Ecuador into new battlefields, as indicated by security officials and diplomats.

Quick Glance: Arizona Republicans foil another effort to repeal 1864 abortion ban
- Arizona House Republicans once again thwarted an attempt on Wednesday to repeal the state's nearly complete abortion ban from 1864, leaving Democrats without a vote on their repeal bill for the second consecutive week.
- Despite facing pressure from influential conservatives, such as former President Trump and Senate hopeful Kari Lake, urging GOP leaders to lift the ban, the Republicans blocked the repeal.
- State House Democrats made a procedural maneuver to attempt to suspend House rules and bring the repeal bill to the floor for discussion. However, this action was rejected by the GOP majority, with only one Republican, Representative Matt Gress, crossing party lines to support bringing up the repeal bill.
- A similar endeavor to repeal the ban was obstructed by Republicans last week. Following persistent criticism of the law by Democrats both within and outside the state throughout the week, prominent figures like Trump and Lake recognized the political risks and advocated for a change in direction within the Legislature.
