House Democrats block GOP’s fourth attempt to vote on anti-infanticide bill
House Democrats again blocked Republican
efforts for a vote on an anti-infanticide bill. The bill, the Born Alive
Abortion Survivors Protection Act, would ensure medical treatment and care for
infants who survive abortion and put an end to infanticide nationwide. Rep.
Mark Walker (R-NC) asked for unanimous consent to bring the bill up for a vote,
but Democrats denied his request. The refusal marks the fourth time that
House Democrats have blocked the bill from coming to a vote.
