Summary: House Republican leaders decided to cancel a vote on an anti-abortion bill. Instead of voting for this bill, they will instead schedule a vote for a bill banning tax payer funded abortions. The cause for the change is simply that the GOP leaders could not find enough support to pass the bill in their favor. They view the second bill as more optimistic. Although the second bill has already been discussed last year leading one member to say, "Maybe we can Xerox your [Republicans] testimony from last year". The cause of the change stems from a few Republican congresswomen who said that it could hurt the GOP's reach to women and young voters.
