REPUBLICAN BRIEFS
Mitch McConnell announced yesterday that the Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act has the full backing of the Senate and expects it will have a vote. Rep. Trent Franks, co-chair of the Pro-Life Caucus in the House, introduced the House version of the bill, H.R. 36, that received bipartisan support as it passed with overwhelming majority in the House on October 3rd. The day after H.R. 36 passed, Rep. Trent Franks penned this op-ed at FoxNews.com, arguing that the bill 'deserved a straight up or down vote in the Senate.'
