in the Senate.....you've pretty much got it:
Forty-one senators have pledged to filibuster any bipartisan spending bill that includes an amendment to strip federal funding from Planned Parenthood, threatening an impasse with House conservatives.
The group, led by Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.), includes thirty-nine Democratic senators and two Independents, Sens. Joe Lieberman (Conn.) and Bernie Sanders (Vt.)�
The group outlined their opposition in a letter to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and GOP leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.), asking Reid and McConnell to �stand with us against extreme proposals by some members of the House to eliminate support for women�s health and family planning programs and providers that service millions of women and families.��
Reid has already declared the Planned Parenthood rider would not be part of a final deal with the House on 2011 spending levels.
