Senate Set to Vote Today on 'Pain Capable' Act That Would Ban Abortion at 20 WeeksThe Pain-Capable Act passed through the House of Representatives last October. At his recent appearance at the March for Life, President Trump urged the Senate to pass the bill and get it to his desk for signing as soon as possible. [Faithwire.com] The US Senate will vote Monday on legislation that would ban abortion after 20 weeks, when the unborn child has been proved to be able to feel pain.

"In 2018, do we still want to be one of seven nations that allow abortion on demand at 20 weeks?" asked Senator Lindsey Graham during the press call. "It's a time in the pregnancy when young parents are encouraged to sing to the unborn child because you can recognize the parent's voice. It's a time when babies can be saved."
