Senate Republicans Block Contraception Access Bill in 51-39 Vote
Jun 5, 2024, 08:59 PM
Senate Republicans have blocked the Right to Contraception Act, a bill that would have enshrined a federal right to access contraception nationwide. The vote, which failed 51 to 39, saw nearly every Senate Republican opposing the legislation, with only two Republicans voting with Democrats. Democrats argue that this move highlights the GOP's stance against reproductive freedom, while Republicans contend that the bill is a 'false scare tactic' ahead of the upcoming election.
