Senate GOP, Manchin block abortion rights legislation

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

48% :"Our Democratic colleagues want to vote for abortion on demand through all nine months, until the moment before a baby is born.
46% : Republicans argued the legislation considered by the Senate went further than most Americans would want to go on abortion rights, infringing on religious liberty and state laws.
40% : But a compromise, if they can reach one, could struggle to get 60 votes in the Senate given deep division lines on abortion.
35% : Democrats removed a non-binding findings section that, among other provisions, referred to restrictions on abortion as perpetuating "white supremacy" and called it "a tool of gender oppression."
33% : Thirteen states have so-called "trigger laws" that would kick in to largely ban abortion immediately.
