The bill, which the House passed in May, would generally prohibit abortions after 20 weeks.U.S. Senator Mike Enzi, R-Wyo., is a cosponsor of the bill. At five months, an unborn child is developed.These lives deserve the same protection that the lives of other children are given, said Enzi. As the father of a child born pre-maturely, I want other children to have the same chance that my daughter had. The U.S. is one of only seven countries that allow abortions after 20 weeks. The list includes North Korea and China. Enzi applauded Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell for bringing the bill up on the Senate floor, which the previous leader prevented. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
