Near-total abortion bans fail in South Carolina, Nebraska as Republican holdouts express concerns
Fox News
Legislators in South Carolina and Nebraska failed to pass abortion bans in their respective states after some Republican holdouts prevented motions to end filibusters.
State senators in South Carolina were unable to clear a threshold to end a filibuster on the near-total abortion bill, continuing a stalemate from the day before when several votes were unable to end the debate.
Similarly, an effort to ban abortion around the sixth week of pregnancy also failed to break a filibuster in the Nebraska Legislature Thursday.
