WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, every Senate Democrat voted to block the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act. Senators Jim Banks (R-Ind.) and James Lankford (R-Okla.) introduced the bill to protect newborns that survive abortions by requiring health care practitioners provide the proper degree of medical care to the child.
“Almost every American agrees that a baby that takes their first breath deserves the same right to life as the rest of us do. I won’t give up this fight for common sense legislation to save the most vulnerable.”
