47% :Sen. Paul Formica, R-East Lyme, said that while he appreciated the larger conversation about race and abortion, "That we need to talk about and deserve attention because it's the fabric of our communities," he thought those issues were outside the scope this bill.
40% :Democratic Sens. Patricia Billie Miller of Stamford, Marilyn Moore of Bridgeport and Douglas McCrory of Hartford echoed the arguments of West Haven Democratic Rep. Treneé McGee during the House's debate on April 19, in saying that abortion means something different to Black people and white people.
