House Democrats pass the so-called Women’s Health Protection Act in a 218-211 vote. The bill is designed to ingrain the most expansive interpretation of Roe v. Wade into federal law and therefore preemptively eradicate all state-level pro-life legislation. The Biden administration releases a statement saying it “strongly supports” the passage of the bill. The proposed law is expected to be blocked in the Senate, where Republicans will filibuster it.
