<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/u-s-senate" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Senate</a> Democrats blocked on Wednesday legislation that aims to protect babies born alive in botched <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/abortion" target="_blank" rel="noopener">abortions</a>.</p>
<p>By a <a href="https://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_votes/vote1191/vote_119_1_00011.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">52-47 vote</a> along party lines, the Republican-led upper chamber failed to invoke cloture on the &#8220;Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act.&#8221; A two-thirds majority was needed for consideration of the legislation to commence.</p>
<p>The chamber&#8217;s two newest members, Sens. Ashley Moody (R-FL) and Jon Husted (R-OH), who were appointed to replace Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Vice President JD Vance, respectively, cast their first vote in favor of the bill.</p>
<p>&#8220;Senate Democrats just voted to block the Born-Alive Act. This isn&#8217;t complicated: babies who survive a failed abortion deserve medical care. It&#8217;s truly unbelievable that protecting these precious lives is a partisan issue. I&#8217;ll never stop fighting for the voiceless,&#8221; Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL) <a href="https://x.com/SenKatieBritt/status/1882162968017961311" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a post to X.</p>
<p>The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/exclusive-gop-lawmakers-introduce-born-alive-abortion-survivors-protection-act" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported exclusively</a> last week that a group of lawmakers led by Sen. James Lankford (R-OK) were again introducing the bill that Republicans have tried and failed to get enacted over the <a href="https://www.congress.gov/search?q=%7B%22source%22%3A%22legislation%22%2C%22search%22%3A%22Born-Alive+Abortion+Survivors+Protection+Act%22%7D" target="_blank" rel="noopener">past few</a> sessions of Congress.</p>
<p>As written, the bill <a href="https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/senate-bill/6/text?s=1&amp;r=4&amp;q=%7B%22search%22%3A%22Born-Alive+Abortion+Survivors+Protection+Act%22%7D" target="_blank" rel="noopener">seeks</a> to &#8220;prohibit a health care practitioner from failing to exercise the proper degree of care in the case of a child who survives an abortion or attempted abortion.&#8221;</p>

<p>The Senate Judiciary Democrats account on X <a href="https://x.com/JudiciaryDems/status/1882162704015925517" target="_blank" rel="noopener">argued</a> that Republicans were &#8220;pushing an unnecessary messaging bill today. It’s already law: any child born in America regardless of circumstance is afforded equal protection.&#8221; The account added: &#8220;The so-called &#8216;Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act&#8217; would only harm doctors and women.&#8221;</p>
<p>A number of Republicans begged to differ, including Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK), who responded to a post from The Daily Wire&#8217;s White House Correspondent Mary Margaret Olohan <a href="https://x.com/MaryMargOlohan/status/1882164567176089824" target="_blank" rel="noopener">announcing</a> that Democrats had blocked the bill.</p>
<p>&#8220;Republicans are NOT the radical party on the issue of life. Don&#8217;t let them put you in a corner. Democrats can&#8217;t even concede that a baby, born alive, should receive medical treatment if they survived an abortion. As the father of six, 3 of whom we adopted, this makes me sick,&#8221; Mullin <a href="https://x.com/senmullin/status/1882175129377194180?s=46" target="_blank" rel="noopener">declared</a>.</p>
<p>&#8220;I am disappointed that every Senate Democrat voted against my Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, making something that should be commonsense, completely partisan for the first time,&#8221; Lankford <a href="https://x.com/SenatorLankford/status/1882168884792594588" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in a post to X of his own. &#8220;This bill is straightforward and would save lives. I believe every life is valuable and that no one is disposable.&#8221;</p>
