Washington Fails to Enact Pro-Life Protections
This week started with excitement but ended with Washington disappointing us yet again. On Tuesday, the Senate failed to pass two important pro-life pieces of legislation.
The first, S. 3275 or The Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Actfailed 53-44. Thankfully, the bill received two Democratic votes from Senators Bob Casey (D-PA) and Joe Manchin (D-WV). But, Senators Susan Collins (R-ME) and Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) voted against it.
