Democrats: The Baby-Killer Party

Why does Chuck Schumer want to kill babies?
Senate Democrats failed to advance a bill to codify Roe v. Wade and create a national right to abortion on Wednesday.
The procedural vote to invoke cloture and advance the Women’s Health Protection Act failed in a 49-to-51 vote. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer chose to hold the vote despite the near certainty that Democrats would fail to meet the 60-vote threshold needed to break a Republican filibuster and advance the measure.
The largely symbolic vote came after a leaked majority draft opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization revealed that the Supreme Court could be poised to overturn Roe v. Wade, returning the question of abortion to the states.
“The most important thing about this vote is that we’ve got 49 Democrats on record supporting abortion up until birth. Remember that this November.”
This is a newborn baby. 49 Democrat senators just voted that it should be lawful to kill it the moment before this while it was still inside its mother. pic.twitter.com/n43O1qXoxE
