Democrats blocked a bipartisan human trafficking bill Tuesday, launching a filibuster to protest an abortion provision that has turned into a major ideological test for both parties and that threatens to hold up Loretta Lynch, whom President Obama has picked to replace Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr.

The flareup that manages to tie together immigration, abortion, gender and race Ms. Lynch would be the first black female to head the Justice Department has quickly escalated into a major test between Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, Kentucky Republican, and Minority Leader Harry Reid, Nevada Democrat.

Mr. Reid won Tuesdays fight, though not without several defections. Four Democrats joined 52 Republicans in backing the trafficking bill and the abortion provision, though that was still four shy of the 60 needed to overcome the filibuster.

The American people will not forget it, Mr. McConnell vowed ahead of the vote, which he said was an embarrassing predicament for Democrats.

Mr. Reid, though, said the Senate should ditch the trafficking bill and instead move straight to a vote on Ms. Lynch, whom the president nominated Nov. 8 but who has seen her backing tumble the longer she remains on the calendar.

Democrats say its wrong to tie the Lynch nomination to finishing the trafficking bill. Mr. McConnell, who as majority leader controls the schedule, has tried to force Democrats to accept something they dont want the abortion provisions in the trafficking bill in exchange for something they do want in the Lynch vote.

Mr. McConnell said Mr. Obama and the White House could get involved and urge Senate Democrats to forgo their filibuster, but they have instead turned their fire on the GOP leader, accusing him of bungling his new role running the Senate and questioning whether his word can be trusted.

Ms. Lynch has seen her support among Senate Republicans tumble after she declined to criticize the presidents Nov. 20 immigration actions, which granted a temporary amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants. In her confirmation hearing she defended the legal reasoning behind the policy.

A federal judge last month ruled the policy likely illegal and has issued an injunction halting it.

The trafficking bill, meanwhile, has stumbled over the GOPs inclusion of the so-called Hyde amendment language prohibiting federal funds from being used to pay for abortions. In this case, the prohibition would apply to penalties collected from traffickers, which are supposed to be used to help victims.
