President Donald Trump is encouraging anti-abortion voters to show up to the polls in November with one goal in mind: Giving a national 20-week abortion ban another shot at passing Congress.
During his remarks at the Susan B. Anthony's List Campaign for Life Gala in Washington, D.C. on Tuesday, the president brought up the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, a legislation banning abortion at 20 weeks of gestation that passed the House last September but failed in the Senate earlier this year.
Trump said that Democratic senators were the ones to blame for killing the bill. He said: "The United States is one of only seven countries in the world to allow elective abortions after 20 weeks when unborn babies can truly feel the pain, yet Democratic senators like Jon Tester, Heidi Heitkamp, Claire McCaskill, Debbie Stabenow, all voted against the 20-week bill and in favor of late-term abortion."
He added, "We're nine votes away from passing the 20-week abortion bill in the Senate. We have to get them out there. The Democratic senators are up for re-election in 10 states that I won by a lot. I think we're doing very well."
