Partisan rancor will return to the Capitol on Thursday just hours after Pope Francis addresses Congress, when Senate Democrats plan to block a must-pass funding bill because of their opposition to its anti-abortion provisions.
The bill, which would fund the government until Dec. 11, would also bar funding to Planned Parenthood, the women's rights organization Republicans revile because of the abortion services it provides. Democrats are demanding that the bill be stripped of this provision before they consent to fund the government before a critical Oct. 1 deadline.
