Harry Reid Challenged to Allow Vote on Late-Term Abortion BanNow that the House of Representatives has passed the bill to ban abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy, pro-life advocates and the bill’s sponsor are challenging pro-abortion Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid to allow a vote in the Senate.
The vote for the bill broke down on mostly partisan lines with Republicans supporting the ban on late-term abortions and Democrats opposing it. The House approved the bill on a 228-196 vote with 6 Democrats voting for the bill and 6 Republicans voting against it.http://www.lifenews.com/2013/06/19/harry-reid-challenged-to-allow-vote-on-late-term-abortion-ban/
Senate Democrats Blast Late-Term Abortion Ban After House PassageRep. Diana DeGette, a Colorado Democrat, is the leader of the pro-abortion forces in the House of Representatives. However, during a press conference today she was unable to answer a simple question about abortion.
Reminded that Democrats said gun control legislation should be adopted even if it saves one life, a reporter asked DeGette if she would support the bill to ban abortions after 20 weeks since it, too, would save at least one life. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/06/19/senate-democrats-blast-late-term-abortion-ban-after-house-passage/
Democrats: Banning Late-Term Abortions is “Stupid, Offensive, Cowardly, Cruel”It was anything but business as usual on the House floor yesterday, as the two parties bitterly fought over a bill to ban abortion after 20 weeks. Emotions were raw from the opening gavel, when Democrats objected to Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) managing the debate on a bill that they called “stupid” (Rep. Charlie Dent, D-Pa.), “offensive” (Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla.), “cowardly,” (Rep. Louise Slaughter, D-N.Y.), “cruel,” (Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y.), “blatantly unconstitutional,” “borne of ignorance,” and an “insult to the intelligence of women.”
Sponsor of 20-Week Abortion Ban Had “Birth Defects,” Family Rejected Infanticide Congressman Trent Franks is a tireless pro-life advocate who takes tremendous heat from the other side for pressing forward with pro-life bills, including his ban on abortions after 20 weeks that the House approved yesterday.
Franks is often eloquent in his speeches on behalf of the unborn children he serves to protect in Congress but, in a new interview with National Review, he shared a personal story that he very rarely discusses: the fact that his family’s physician suggested he be left to die.http://www.lifenews.com/2013/06/19/sponsor-of-20-week-abortion-ban-had-birth-defects-family-rejected-infanticide/

Congresswoman Holds Back Tears Urging Democrats to Ban Late AbortionsDemocrats came to the House floor yesterday one after another refusing to support a ban on late-term abortions the House eventually passed on a mostly part-line vote.
One congresswoman, in describing how abortion kills unborn children, was so distressed to see so many lawmakers ignoring their plight she had to hold back tears during her speech on the House floor. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/06/19/congresswoman-holds-back-tears-urging-democrats-to-ban-late-abortions/
