Budget bill cutting Planned Parenthood funding heads for trouble in Senate

Budget bill cutting Planned Parenthood funding heads for trouble in Senate | LifeSiteNews.com: The spending bill that would defund Planned Parenthood and that was passed by the U.S. House of Representatives early Saturday morning is not likely to see the light of day in the Senate, except in a very different form, according to one source on Capitol Hill.

“Most likely the Senate will not take up H.R. 1,” said the source, noting that, if they do, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid would probably replace it with “a substitute bill that is entirely different from the House-passed version. Fighting for the pro-life policies will most likely happen in negotiations between the House and Senate.”
