The House voted, as expected, to block a D.C. law banning discrimination by employers against employees who have had abortions. on Thursday night — but the measure is unlikely to have any effect before the law takes effect this weekend.
All but 13 Republicans voted for the resolution of disapproval, which passed on a largely party-line, 228-192 vote, while just three Democrats voted in favor of it. The measure got a high-level Democratic opponent on Thursday with Hillary Clinton's campaign weighing in, calling it a move to "overrule the Democratic process" in a statement to CNN.
The bill would roll back a D.C. law approved in December that bars city employers from taking punitive action against employees for using abortion services or birth control. Under the Constitution, Congress can nullify laws passed by the Washington city council, but it's required to weigh in within 30 days after the measure has been sent to Capitol Hill.

don’t think abortion is used primarily to not have a family ever. It’s far worse. It’s to not have a family when you’re not ready i.e., it will interfere with the fun of youth, your career, your finances etc.
People think it is like buying a new house. You have to really be ready. And they are kind of right but the answer is don’t get pregnant till you’re ready.
Funny how these people didn’t get aborted and that never occurs to them that they wouldn’t be alive to push abortion if they were.
Hitlery: Lusting to see more dead babies, a high priestess to the Cult of Death.
Another “ban something that is not a problem to send another modern liberal message” bill.
She will stand next to hitler in hell along with soros and many others of her ilk
Or keep the sex within a hetero married family framework... if and probably when the gaystapo gets to force redefinition of marriage at the gummit level, people are going to have to say hetero married or even holy married so they are clear.
More dead black babies, at that.
I seem to think that it is perfectly within her norm to be against any abortion bill that restricts abortions.
I mean, didn’t she take a coat hanger to her @clintonemail server accounts? Those babies were full-term, to boot.
Or is this just another “Make Trial Lawyers Richer!” bill.
“Hey, Tiffani, my boss fired me for my “poor attendance”.
“But Dorleen! Dincha have an abortion when you was a kid?”
“Yeah. So what? Everybody did.”
“You have hit the JACKPOT, girl! Just SUE your old boss...”
As contrasted with the Dem-backed judicial destruction of laws aimed at protecting the unborn . . . as well as laws (many passed by direct popular vote) protecting traditional marriage?
Hillary’s campaign for President IS an abortion!!
You laugh, but American women, particularly on both coasts and the Great Lakes truly believe she is “their defender” and always shall be.
The bill would roll back a D.C. law approved in December that bars city employers from taking punitive action against employees for using abortion services or birth control. Under the Constitution, Congress can nullify laws passed by the Washington city council, but it's required to weigh in within 30 days after the measure has been sent to Capitol Hill.Roll it back. It's a BS ordinance meant to be used to selectively punish employers for partisan reasons.
Actually, most bills nowadays are to benefit some special group. The point of my post is that Hillary! saying anything with regard to anything at this point in her disastrous campaign fiasco is ludicrous.
She simply has no basis or honest right to be talking about anything that affects the average citizen unless it is about scheming, cheating, ignoring, contriving, lying, stealing, subverting, obfuscating or perverting the law for selfish purposes, period.
Yes, it’s about convenience. This isn’t a convenient time for me to have a baby, so I’ll just have a “procedure.” The bitter, bitter regret comes later in life.
This sentence takes some parsing. There were employers who wanted to discriminate against potential employees who've had abortions. A law was proposed to ban that discrimination. The House voted to block to law.
Do I have that right?
Maybe we need to “call out” more of these “Make Lawyers Richer” bills.
Maybe Congressmen with degrees from law schools should be RECUSED from voting on such bills...
IT’s all based on lies. Never met a girl who wasn’t injured on some way mentally from the abortion. I mean 20 years later!! and the ones that weren’t were so pathetically mentally ill/lost I felt bad for them.
One couple I knew years ago when I was in my 20s had unprotected sex while she was pregnant because “we’re going to get an abortion anyway so why use condoms”
Come on man!!!
I don’t hate the people that had abortions I try NOT to hate the people like Hillary, from high on their rich perch, push HARD for it like it was a religion.
