The vote was 240-185 to de-fund. Seven Republicans voted against the bill and ten Democrats for it. One Republican voted "present" (?) and there were seven representatives who did not vote.
Republican Nan Hayworth, who is prochoice/proabortion and defeated prochoice/proabortion John Hall last year in the NY 19th Congressional District, had campaigned in favor of legal abortion but opposed to government funding. However in recent days she had been non-committal on how she would vote on de-funding.
She did vote with the majority to de-fund.
