Bill To Legalize Nearly 100% Of Abortions Through Birth Failed In The Senate 49-51, Elizabeth Warren Says She Doesn't Think A “Minority” Should Be Able To Block A “Majority” 🤔
· May 12, 2022 · NottheBee.com

On Wednesday, the Democrats attempted to pass a bill in the Senate that would allow abortions in virtually ALL cases all the way until the moment of birth.

Obviously, the vote was never going to get past the 60 vote threshold needed to bypass the filibuster, but the radical bill didn't even get to the 50 vote mark.

Joe Manchin is literally the only Democrat in the United States Senate that supports having ANY restriction on abortion.

Read that again: EVERY Democrat, except one, voted in favor of removing EVERY limit on abortion.

So much for the moderate left.

From the Daily Wire:

"The Women's Health Protection Act would protect a person's ability to decide to continue or end a pregnancy and would enshrine into law health care providers' ability to offer abortion services ‘prior to fetal viability' without restrictions imposed by individual states, like requiring special admitting privileges for providers or imposing waiting periods," NPR noted.

However, the bill would also legalize abortion after fetal viability, "when, in the good-faith medical judgment of the treating health care provider, a continuation of the pregnancy would pose a risk to the pregnant patient's life or health," according to the bill.

That language would overrule various state laws. Likewise, critics like The Wall Street Journal pointed out that the term "health" is too open-ended and could allow abortions for virtually any reason, so long as it's signed off by an abortion provider.

Health is "sometimes defined to include mental, emotional or familial factors, a loophole that permits elective abortions, more or less, through all nine months of pregnancy," the Journal argued.

This bill is radical no-limits abortion policy.

However, Senator Elizabeth Warren either didn't get the memo that the vote didn't reach 50% or she's just bad at math, because after the vote the confused Senator went on a mega-rant about the will of the "majority."

I believe in democracy, and I don't believe the minority should have the ability to block the things that the majority wants to do. That's not in the constitution.

First off, Liz, that is EXPLICITLY in the Constitution. It was a document created in order to push back against the tyranny of the majority.

But the real perfect thing here is that Warren and the Dems DID NOT GET A MAJORITY of the votes.

51 > 49

I know Dems struggle with math, but this is so simple that I thought Warren could handle it.

Alright, Elizabeth! Have it your way!

Whoever has the most votes this time wins!

Oh, look at that, you lost!

After this vote, Elizabeth Warren and EVERY Democrat in senate except Manchin are now on record as opposing ANY limits on abortion.

We'll remember this in November.
