The abortion bill passed the House Friday afternoon along party lines, with Democrats supporting and Republicans against. But one Democrat—Rep. Henry Cuellar from Texas—did join Republicans in voting no. The bill would allow for abortions to happen even after fetal viability—when the baby is considered alive or as capable of living.
