Schumer to force doomed abortion 'show vote,' as tough midterms loom for Democrats
Fox News
Senate Democrats are forcing a vote on a bill to protect abortion rights this week, as they seek to hammer Republicans over the expected Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade.
And with the midterms looming and a tough political environment for Democrats, Republican say that's what the vote is all about.
"Sen. Schumer can be accused of a lot of things, but avoiding the theatrics of a show vote is not one of them," Senate Minority Whip John Thune, R-S.D., told Fox News Digital. "The fact that he plans for the Senate to consider a bill that he knows will fail – because it already has – says everything you need to know, because the only outcome he’s interested in is a political one."
