The House of Representative passed legislation on Tuesday that will cut off any use of taxpayer dollars to pay for abortion just days before the annual March for Life.
The legislation faces an uphill battle in the Senate. Republicans have a 52-48 majority in the upper chamber, 8 votes short of what is needed to pass in the face of a filibuster.
The legislation came two days after President Donald Trump signed the Mexico City Policy, which bans the use of foreign aid to pay for abortions overseas. More than 80 percent of respondents said they supported the policy, according to Marist.
