Elizabeth Warren blasted for claiming 'minority' blocked abortion bill despite it being opposed by majority
Fox News
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., was blasted by critics for claiming that a "minority" of senators blocked the passage of an abortion rights bill despite a majority voting against it.
"What we're talking about right now are the individual rights and liberties of half the population of the United States of America. I think that's enough to say it's time to get rid of the filibuster," she added.
Warren's reference to the filibuster was also perplexing considering a filibuster-proof majority is 60 votes and the bill could not even muster a simple majority, failing by a 51-49 margin.
