NC Dems Block ‘Born Alive’ Anti-Abortion Bill

After weeks of dirty tactics from their GOP colleagues, Democrats in North Carolina's House of Representatives successfully sustained Gov. Roy Cooper's (D) veto of an extreme anti-abortion bill on Wednesday.


The majority of the House actually voted in favor of overriding Cooper's veto of the controversial “Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act” in a 67-53 vote. But the legislative body failed to get the 60% supermajority needed to overturn the governor's veto.
