The U.S. House voted mostly along party lines Thursday to send the Senate legislation that would guarantee people the right to use contraception without government interference.
The legislation from North Carolina Democratic Rep. Kathy Manning, approved 228-195, is part of the Democrats’ response to the U.S. Supreme Court ruling that overturned the constitutional right to an abortion.
Eight Republicans voted to approve the bill. Rep. Andy Harris, the only Republican in Maryland’s congressional delegation, voted against the measure. Maryland Democrats supported it.
