Survey: Abortions Down in Almost All 50 States
Monday, June 08, 2015
Researchers found that abortions have declined in states where new laws make it harder to have them, as well as in states with few restrictions on abortion.
Abortions have been down since 2010 with an overall drop of about 12 percent.
Pro-life advocates say the drop is due to a shift in attitudes, with more women choosing to carry their pregnancies to term.
"There's an entire generation of women who saw a sonogram as their first baby picture," said Charmaine Yoest, president of Americans United for Life. "There's an increased awareness of the humanity of the baby before it is born."
Pro-choice advocates attribute the drop to expanded access to effective contraceptives.
