House passes bills to codify Roe, protect interstate travel for abortion
The first bill, titled the Women's Health Protection Act, would establish a statutory right for health care providers to provide, and patients to receive, abortion services. It would also prohibit states from imposing restrictions on abortion care.
The measure passed in a 219-to-210 vote. No Republicans voted in favor of the bill.
The Women's Health Protection Act now goes to the Senate, where it previously failed to move forward after the House first passed it in September 2021.
The second bill to pass the House, known as the Ensuring Access to Abortion Act, addresses recent efforts by state legislatures to punish Americans traveling for reproductive health care. The bill would would ensure no person acting under state law could prevent, restrict, or otherwise retaliate against a person traveling across state lines for lawful abortion services.

There is SERIOUS internecine warfare now going on inside the Democratic party. It is rare to see an entire party gang up on one individual member like so many members, especially progressives, and even some moderates are on Manchin.
But, in this latest round, Democrats were essentially pitting Manchin against himself. And, Democrats are able to use Manchin as a foil. If they ever get a deal, great. If not, they can use Manchin’s opposition against him and campaign for two to three more Senate seats.
And if Democrats are successful, they no longer have to go through Manchin on everything next year.

Trump voters favor secession for their state – poll
About 33% of Trump voters in so-called red states say they’d personally fare better if their state “became an independent country,” according to a Yahoo/YouGov poll released on Friday. That compared with 29% who believe they’d be “worse off” after secession. The remaining 38% are either unsure or see themselves faring “about the same” in a newly independent state.
The margin was similar when Americans were asked how their state as a whole would fare after secession, with 35% of Trump voters speculating that it would be better off versus 30% saying that it would be worse off.
