House votes to overturn Bush gag rule on abortion counseling
The House approved 251 144 a bill striking down Bush administration limits on abortion counseling at federally funded family planning facilities. The vote fell short of the two thirds needed to override a veto, and 16 absent members might have altered the outcome. The measure now awaits Senate approval before reaching the White House. The same day lawmakers backed a separate 255 164 vote to send a Russia and former Soviet states aid package to a conference committee, signaling a Cold War era aid stance.
