The Senate is likely to take up a bill in September that would ban most abortions of unborn babies 20 weeks or older, according to The Washington Examiner. A full Senate vote would likely come in October.

The news comes amid growing outrage over a video showing a Planned Parenhood executive shopping aborted baby parts.

"America should not be giving one penny to an organization that trafficks in baby parts," Rev. Pat Mahoney, with the Christian Defense Coalition, said.

"Planned Parenthood's practice of brutally dismembering young and defenseless human beings is outrageous and atrocious enough. And these new revelations seal the deal," James Conrad, with Survivors of the Abortion Holocaust, said.

So where do most Americans stand when it comes to abortion?

CBN's Paul Strand recently spoke with Charles Camosy, a Catholic professor who says that most people dislike abortions - but few want them all banned. He believes this fact could mean there are new chances to work out real compromise that could lead to fewer abortions.
