On May 31, the U.S. House of Representatives will vote on, under Suspension of the Rules, a bill to prohibit the use of abortion as a method of sex selection in the United States – the Prenatal Nondiscrimination Act (H.R. 3541).

Multiple academic papers have put forward evidence that the practice of sex-selection by abortion is increasing in the United States.
