Outside of that reporting requirement and the "powers vested by the Commerce clause" bullshit, I fail to see why anyone would be block a bill that would stop gender and race determined abortion.

Page 14-15:

(b) CONSTITUTIONAL AUTHORITY.—In accordance
with the above findings, Congress enacts the following pursuant to Congress’ power under—
(1) the Commerce Clause;
(2) section 2 of the 13th amendment;

(3) section 5 of the 14th amendment, including
the power to enforce the prohibition on government
action denying equal protection of the laws; and
(4) section 8 of article I to make all laws necessary and proper for the carrying into execution of
powers vested by the Constitution in the Government
of the United States.

I always wince when they bring up the Commerce clause and article 1 sec 8.
That often means the authority for the act is questionable.
