• Proposed abortion bans in two solid red states each failed by one vote this week, after being torpedoed by several Republicans who refused to vote for the pro-life measures.
• In Nebraska, a six-week abortion ban could not reach the 33 votes it needed to get past a filibuster after a 32-15 vote in the state Senate and one Republican abstained from voting.
• In South Carolina, three Republican women led a filibuster against a bill called the “Human Life Protection Act,” leading the vote to fail 22-21.
