Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act: How Did Your Senator Vote?

The United States Congress is working on curtailing abortion on demand, finally.

Despite the conservative, pro-life culture in the United States, this country has one of the most liberal abortion laws in the world. North Korea and China have similar abortion laws, sadly:

There are only 7 countries left that still permit elective abortion after 20 weeks—including the US, China, and North Korea. That’s why the #Senate will soon vote to take up commonsense legislation to protect unborn children who can feel pain.

It's truly heart-breaking to see this legislation not get passed cloture.

Here is how the US Senators voted on preserving human life ex utero:

Two Republicans voted no: Collins and Murkowski, who are very liberal Republicans. John McCain is still missing votes because of his long-term illness. At some point, he need to announce his retirement. The people of Arizona deserve an active representative in the US Senate.

Only Two Democrats voted for the bill: Bob Casey of Pennsyvlania, and Joe Manchin of West Virginia. They need to ensure some kind of independence in their tough re-election bids this year. I am surprised that Heidi Heitkamp and other Red State Democrats would vote against this piece of legislation. It is so common-sense, it is nonsensical to reject it.

Two other Red State Democrats sat out the vote: Bill Nelson of Florida and Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin. Where's the courage?

These Democrats are making a big mistake not voting for this bill … and then again, even if they do vote for it, their votes against Tax Reform, Obamacare Repeal, and security of our borders is going to hurt them immensely in November.
