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.

Quick Glance: Has Beyoncé Already Created Her Rock Album?
  • Beyoncé blends R&B, country, and hard-hitting guitars on Cowboy Carter, hinting at a potential rock album, with some arguing that this album could already fit that genre.

  • Tracks like the Prince-meets-Sheryl Crow pop-rock gem 'Bodyguard' and the spectacular Tina Turner-style anthem 'Ya Ya' support the notion, along with the proggy elements in the Jon Batiste-assisted opening track 'American Requiem'.

  • However, with 27 often wildly disparate tracks, Cowboy Carter is challenging to categorize. In a new episode of Rolling Stone Music Now, many tracks are discussed, speculating that Beyoncé's next album, the third in the trilogy, might be an official rock album.

  • One of the album's guest stars, country singer Willie Jones, expresses excitement about collaborating with one of his biggest inspirations on the ballad 'Just for Fun' in the episode.

  • Uber partners with Waymo to use self-driving cars for meal delivery in Phoenix, Arizona.
