Only three women in the entire Senate voted for it, while Republican Sens. PREVIOUSLY:The U.S. Senate will vote Monday on a bill that would ban abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy and would threaten doctors with up to five years in jail. The legislation, passed by the House of Representatives in October, has little chance of acquiring the 60 votes it needs to move forward in the Senate. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) and Susan Collins (R-Maine), have expressed concerns about the exceptions in the abortion bill, which was introduced by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.). and Heidi Heitkamp (D-N.D.) previously voted against the legislation, but are now both up for re-election this year in states that voted for Trump.
