GOP Sen. James Lankford (Okla.) on Thursday blocked a Democratic request to unanimously pass a bill seeking to protect interstate travel for abortion.
Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.), joined by a string of Democratic senators, had sought consent to pass a bill that would prevent states from punishing women who travel to other states where abortion is legal to get the procedure.
Does that child in the womb have the right to travel in their future?” Lankford said in objecting. “Do they get to live?”
“There’s a child in this conversation as well,” he added.
