House Dems Advance Abortion Bill That's Twice Failed In Senate

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

48% : Their legislation would expand access to abortion-on-demand pills, limit a woman's ability to seek out alternatives to abortion, and robs the States of their ability to effectively legislate protecting the unborn," Republican Texas Rep. Pat Fallon said in an op-ed for the Daily Caller News Foundation.
45% : Chu's bill declares that a "health care provider has a statutory right under this Act to provide abortion services" without a "prohibition on abortion after fetal viability."
43% : The House of Representatives passed a bill Friday that aims to protect rights for women seeking abortion and those providing abortion services despite two previous rejections.
41% : Currently, only seven states have no gestational limits regarding abortion, according to The New York Times; even heavily Democratic states such as California and New York have restrictions against abortions after fetal viability, according to state laws.
36% : The new House bill was introduced on July 7 by Democratic California Rep. Judy Chu as a reaction to the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, making abortion no longer a right protected by the federal government.
